Procedural characteristics and outcomes following chronic total occlusion coronary intervention: pooled analysis from 5 registries.
Background Recent improvement in clinical skills, technology and hardware has resulted in improved success rates with chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We performed a study level pooled analysis from the five largest registries of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of CTO. Research design and methods We conducted pooled analysis of 9500 patients in registries and data on procedural characteristics, technical success, and MACCE was collected. Results A total of 9500 patients were included in the analysis. Mean age was 65.4 years with previous CABG in 24.8%, reattempt procedure in 24.8% and mean JCTO score was 2.2. Final wiring strategy in hybrid al…

Chronic total occlusion (CTO) revascularization a comparison from Japanese and European expert CTO operators registries
Abstract Background Development of different strategies and devices improved CTO revascularization. However, technical and procedural success might be influenced by several factors including geographical expertise. Methods A total of 4412 CTO coronary treated lesions (Japan 1531 Europe 2881) (mean age 64.5±10.7, male 85.2%, JCTO score 2.09±1.24) were analyzed in European and Japanese registries during the year 2016. The primary endpoint was to assess technical success rate of CTO-PCI cases and procedural outcomes. Results Primary Antegrade approach and success rate were 71.5% and 90.8% respectively in Japan while 77.0% and 94.1%, respectively in Europe, (p<0001). Primary Retrograde a…
