Trends in Outcomes After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusions

Abstract: Procedural success rates for CTO have not improved over time in the stent era, highlighting the need to develop new techniques and devices. Compared with the prestent era, in-hospital major adverse cardiac events and 1-year target vessel revascularization rates have declined by approximately 50%.

“…Despite advantages in interventional cardiology during last decade, chronic total occlusions (CTO) still remains one of the biggest problem in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) (10,14). CTO prevalence is high, but only less than 10% of percutaneous revascularizations are CTO interventions (17).…”

“…Despite developments in interventional cardiology during the last decade, chronic total occlusions (CTO) still remain as one of the unresolved problems in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) (Prasad et al, 2007). CTO prevalence is high; approximately one-third of patients with significant coronary artery disease on angiography has at least 1 CTO, but only less than 10% of percutaneous revascularisations are CTO interventions (Werner et al, 2009).…”
