Abstract

Objectives: This study sought to examine the pre-interventional parameters for procedural success of CTO angioplasty and to assess improvement of Left ventricular ejection fraction after successful angioplasty of CTO. Background: Chronic total occlusions (CTOs) are the most technically challenging lesion subset that interventional cardiologists might face, and that recanalization of these lesions will have the most impact on future percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) success. Considering the recent development of catheter based technologies specific for CTO recanalization and the potenti
