Abstract Background The percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) strategy for chronic total occlusion (CTO) based on the guidewire manipulation time remains infrequent. Purpose We aimed to assess CTO-PCI strategy on the basis of guidewire manipulation time. Methods A total of 5843 patients undergoing CTO PCI between January 2014 and December 2017 and enrolled in the Japanese CTO-PCI expert registry were assessed. Their CTO-PCI strategies, procedural outcomes, and guidewire manipulation time were analysed. Results The primary retrograde approach was performed on 1562 patients (26.7%). The overall guidewire and technical success rates were 92.8% and 90.6%, respectively. Median guidewire manipulation time of guidewire success and failure were 56 (interquatile range [IQR]: 22 to 111) min and 176 (IQR: 130 to 229) min, respectively. The average Japanese CTO score of the primary antegrade approach with the antegrade alone, the primary antegrade approach with the retrograde approach, and the primary retrograde approach were 1.7±1.1, 2.1±1.2, and 2.3±1.1, respectively (p<0.001). Median successful guidewire crossing time of single wiring in the antegrade alone was 23 (IQR: 11 to 44) min, and that of the primary retrograde approach was significantly shorter than that of the primary antegrade approach with the retrograde approach (107 [IQR: 70 to 161] min vs. 126 [IQR: 87 to 174] min; p<0.001). Reattempt, CTO length ≥20 mm, and proximal cap ambiguity were the predictors of guidewire failure in the primary antegrade approach with antegrade alone, but were not those in the primary retrograde approach. Conclusions Although successful guidewire crossing time of the primary antegrade approach with the antegrade alone is short, that of the primary retrograde approach can be shorter than that of the primary antegrade approach with the retrograde approach. Choosing an appropriate CTO-PCI strategy leads to shortening of successful guidewire crossing time.

The retrograde approach has increased the success rate of chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention but has also been associated with a higher risk of complications. The retrograde approach is usually performed in complex lesions, in which the antegrade approach is not feasible or has failed previously. Using a systematic 10-step approach can maximize the likelihood of success and minimize the risks of retrograde chronic total occlusion interventions.

Chronic total occlusion recanalization still represents the final frontier in percutaneous coronary intervention. Successful revascularization is associated with improved long-term survival, reduced symptoms, improved left ventricular function and reduced need for coronary bypass surgery. Retrograde chronic total occlusion recanalization has recently become an essential complement to the classic antegrade approach. Retrograde approach through the collateral channel has been recently proposed and has the potential to improve the success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in chronic total occlusion (CTO) lession of the coronary arteries. We report several cases of successful CTO recanalization procedure using retrograde approach in Soetomo Hospital.

AbstractChronic total occlusion (CTO) is a common challenge accounting for 10% of coronary lesions found on coronary angiography. Patients are frequently referred for bypass surgery because percutaneous coronary intervention is challenging in this subset. Recent advances in the hardware as well as the technical expertise and an algorithm approach have improved the success to more than 90%.Antegrade approach is the cornerstone for managing CTO and has two distinct strategies: antegrade wire escalation, and antegrade dissection and reentry strategy. Step-wise approach to perform these procedures and the use of adjunct imaging are discussed.

Purpose:to assess results of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with contemporary endovascular techniques of recanalization of chronic total coronary artery occlusions (CTO) in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD). Occlusion (CTO) he procedural and in-hospital outcomes of consecutive patients undergoing chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention.Materials and methods.We retrospectively analyzed data from 456 consecutive patients (mean age 59.9±7.1 years, 18.2 % women) who underwent CTO PCI procedures (n=477) during 2014–2016 in the E. N. Meshalkin National Medical Research Center. CTO was localized in the right (61.2 %), left anterior descending (23.2 %) and left circumflex (15.3 %) coronary arteries. In one patient CTO was located in the left main coronary artery. According to the J-CTO score, 30 % of lesions were classified as easy, 36.4 % intermediate, 23.7 % difficult, and 18.9 % very difficult.Results.Technical and procedural successes were achieved in 374 (78.4 %) and 366 patients (76.7 %), respectively. Antegrade approach was used in 378 (79.2 %), retrograde approach – in 99 (20.7 %) cases. Retrograde approach as primary strategy was used in 27 cases (5.7 %). Most frequent access for CTO PCI was radial artery, contralateral injection was used in 151 cases (31.6 %). Total number of stents per lesion was 1.6±0.98. The mean fluoroscopy time was 36.2±31 min.Conclusions.The rate of procedural adverse events in our study was low and similar to the non-CTO PCI series. However, despite the large number of CTO PCIs, the procedural success rate was still lower than in centers with dedicated programs for the management of such patients. Thus, further work is required to overcome this difference. Possible solution of this problem might be development and introduction in clinical practice of an algorithm for CTO recanalization.

Set Up

Chronic total occlusion (CTO) of a coronary artery remains one of the most challenging scenarios in cinical practice. There is much debate about whether opening a CTO is clinically indicated and the procedures are often considered too risky. As a result many patients with a clinical indication for percutaneous coronary intervention (the presence of angina despite medical therapy, with proven ischaemia and viability) are not offered treatment. This chapter will aim to demystify the procedure by explaining how pathophysiological features can help understand the anatomy and how cath lab set-up can increase procedural efficiency, safety, and overall success rates. There are four methods by which a CTO can be opened and we will describe these methods and the anatomically salient features to help select the most appropriate method with which to start.

Abstract Objective To describe the development and first results of a dedicated chronic total occlusion (CTO) programme in a tertiary medical centre. Background Because of the complexity and the increased risk of complications during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for CTO, it is essential that less experienced and evolving CTO centres perform regular quality analyses. Methods We therefore performed analyses to describe the results during the first 3 years of a dedicated CTO programme at a high-volume PCI centre. In addition, we discuss the strategies employed to develop such a programme. Results A total of 179 consecutive patients undergoing 187 CTO procedures were included in the study. The complexity of the CTO lesions increased from a mean J‑CTO (Japanese Multicentre CTO Registry) score of 1.3 in 2015 to 2.1 in 2017. In the majority of cases, the antegrade wire escalation technique was performed. Final technical success rate was 78.5% in 175 patients with a single CTO and 80.2% of all 187 CTO procedures. No peri-procedural or in-hospital deaths occurred. One peri-procedural myocardial infarction occurred. Cardiac tamponade occurred in 2 cases, both managed by pericardiocentesis. No urgent cardiac surgery was necessary. Survival and revascularisation rates at 30 days and 1 year were excellent. Conclusion Following initiation of a dedicated CTO programme, using up-to-date techniques and strategies, procedural and clinical outcome were comparable with current standards in established centres.
