Mechanisms of Medial Wall Thinning in Chronic Total Occlusion. JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2024:S1936-8798(24)00758-1. [PMID: 38970581 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2024.05.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/08/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is lower and the risk for complications higher compared with other non-CTO PCI. Although interventionalists focus on intimal plaque characteristics, the coronary media is an important (especially for techniques involving antegrade dissection and re-entry) but poorly understood structure in CTO PCI. OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to investigate coronary medial wall thinning in CTO lesions and determine how this thinning might affect CTO PCI. METHODS A total of 2,586 sections were investigated, from arteries with evidence of CTO from 54 subjects (n = 1,383 sections) and arteries without evidence of CTO from 54 subjects with non-coronary-related deaths (n = 1,203 sections) after matching for age, gender, body weight, and body height. RESULTS The medial thickness in subjects with CTO was lower than that in those with non-coronary-related death (P < 0.001). In subjects with CTO, CTO lesions had thinner medial walls compared with those with lower luminal narrowing (P < 0.001). At the CTO distal segments, the 6- to 12-mm distal segment from the distal end of the CTO had significantly less luminal narrowing (P < 0.001), and similar medial thickness, compared with the distal end of the CTO. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that short-duration CTO had more cleaved caspase-3-positive cells in media and had significantly more CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, and CD4+CD28null T cells compared with long-duration CTO. CONCLUSIONS CTO lesions demonstrated coronary medial thinning compared with non-CTO lesions. Further investigation of the cause-and-effect relationship among inflammation, apoptosis, and coronary medial wall thinning is warranted in future mechanistic studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emergency coronary artery bypass surgery (eCABG) is a serious complication of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI). METHODS We examined the incidence and outcomes eCABG among 14,512 CTO PCIs performed between 2012 and 2023 in a large multicenter registry. RESULTS The incidence of eCABG was 0.12% (n = 17). Mean age was 68 ± 6 years and 69% of the patients were men. The most common reason for eCABG was coronary perforation (70.6%). eCABG patients had larger target vessel diameter (3.36 ± 0.50 vs. 2.90 ± 0.52; p = 0.003), were more likely to have moderate/severe calcification (85.7% vs. 45.8%; p = 0.006), side branch at the proximal cap (91.7% vs. 55.4%; p = 0.025), and balloon undilatable lesions (50% vs. 7.4%; p = 0.001) and to have undergone retrograde crossing (64.7% vs. 30.8%, p = 0.006). eCABG cases had lower technical (35.3% vs. 86.7%; p < 0.001) and procedural (35.3% vs. 86.7%; p < 0.001) success and higher in-hospital mortality (35.3% vs. 0.4%; p < 0.001), coronary perforation (70.6% vs. 4.6%; p < 0.001), pericardiocentesis (47.1% vs. 0.8%; p < 0.001), and major bleeding (11.8% vs. 0.5%; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of eCABG after CTO PCI was 0.12% and associated with high in-hospital mortality (35%). Coronary perforation was the most common reason for eCABG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Controlled antegrade and retrograde subintimal tracking (CART) is rarely performed in contemporary chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). AIMS We aimed to analyse the indications, procedural characteristics, and outcomes of CART at a high-volume CTO programme. METHODS We included all patients undergoing a retrograde CTO PCI in which CART was performed at our institution between January 2019 and November 2023. The primary endpoint was technical success. RESULTS Of 1,582 CTO PCI, the retrograde approach was performed in 603 procedures (38.1%), and CART was used in 45 cases (7.5%). The mean age was 69.1±10.3 years, 93.3% were male, and prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery was present in 68.9%. The most common target CTO vessel was the right coronary artery (48.9%). Anatomical complexity was high (Multicentre CTO Registry of Japan [J-CTO] score of 3.6±0.9). The most common collateral used for CART was a saphenous vein graft (62.2%). Advanced calcium modification was required in 15.6% of cases. CART was successful in 73.3%. Technical and procedural success was 82.2%. Coronary perforation was diagnosed in 4 subjects (8.9%), but only 1 patient (2.2%) suffered tamponade and required pericardiocentesis. No other in-hospital major adverse cardiac events were diagnosed. CONCLUSIONS CART is a useful technique in selected, very complex CTOs tackled with the retrograde approach. Success rates were high, while complication rates were low, considering the high anatomical complexity and baseline patient risk.

Abstract
There is significant variation in wire utilization patterns for chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of polymer-jacketed wires (PJWs) versus non-PJWs in anterograde procedures. We analyzed clinical and angiographic characteristics, and procedural outcomes of 7,575 anterograde CTO percutaneous coronary interventions that were performed at 47 centers between 2012 and 2023. Cases in which PJWs were exclusively used were classified in the PJW group, whereas cases where at least one non-PJW was employed were classified in the non-PJW group. Study end points were as follows: technical success, coronary perforation, major adverse cardiac event. PJWs were exclusively used in 3,481 cases (46.0%). These cases had lower prevalence of proximal cap ambiguity, blunt stump, and moderate/severe calcification. They also had lower Japanese CTO (J-CTO), Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion (PROGRESS-CTO), and PROGRESS-CTO complications scores, higher technical success (94.3% vs 85.7%, p <0.001), and lower perforation rates (2.2% vs 3.2%, p = 0.013). Major adverse cardiac event rates did not differ between groups (1.3% vs 1.5%, p = 0.53). Exclusive use of PJWs was independently associated with higher technical success in both the multivariable (odds ratio [OR] 2.66, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.13 to 3.36, p <0.001) and inverse probability of treatment weight analysis (OR 2.43, 95% CI 2.04 to 2.89, p <0.001). Exclusive use of PJWs was associated with lower risk of perforation in the multivariable analysis (OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.49 to 0.95, p = 0.02), and showed a similar trend in the inverse probability of treatment weight analysis (OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.57 to 1.04, p = 0.09). Exclusive use of PJWs is associated with higher technical success and lower perforation risk in this non-randomized series of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Retrograde chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with lower success and higher complication rates when compared with the antegrade approach. OBJECTIVES This study sought to assess contemporary techniques and outcomes of retrograde CTO PCI. METHODS We examined the baseline characteristics, procedural techniques and outcomes of 4,058 retrograde CTO PCIs performed at 44 centers between 2012 and 2023. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) included any of the following in-hospital events: death, myocardial infarction, repeat target vessel revascularization, pericardiocentesis, cardiac surgery, and stroke. RESULTS The average J-CTO (Multicenter CTO Registry in Japan) score was 3.1 ± 1.1. Retrograde crossing was successful in 60.5% and lesion crossing in 81.6% of cases. The collaterals pathways successfully used were septals in 62.0%, saphenous vein grafts in 17.4%, and epicardials in 19.1%. The technical and procedural success rates were 78.7% and 76.6%, respectively. When retrograde crossing failed, technical success was achieved in 50.3% of cases using the antegrade approach. In-hospital MACE was 3.5%. The clinical coronary perforation rate was 5.8%. The incidence of in-hospital MACE with retrograde true lumen crossing, just marker antegrade crossing, conventional reverse controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking (CART), contemporary reverse CART, extended reverse CART, guide-extension reverse CART, and CART was 2.1%, 0.8%, 5.5%, 3.0%, 2.1%, 3.2%, and 4.1%, respectively; P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Retrograde CTO PCI is utilized in highly complex cases and yields moderate success rates with 5.8% perforation and 3.5% periprocedural MACE rates. Among retrograde crossing strategies, retrograde true lumen puncture was the safest. There is need for improvement of the efficacy and safety of retrograde CTO PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The contemporary frequency and outcomes of antegrade dissection and re-entry (ADR) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have received limited study. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the frequency and outcomes of ADR use in a large multicenter CTO PCI registry. METHODS The characteristics and outcomes of ADR were examined among 12,568 patients who underwent 12,841 CTO PCIs at 46 U.S. and non-U.S. centers between 2012 and 2023. RESULTS ADR was used in 2,385 of the procedures (18.6%). ADR use declined from 37.9% in 2012 to 14.5% in 2022 (P < 0.001). Patients in whom ADR was used had a high prevalence of comorbidities. Compared with cases that did not use ADR, ADR cases had more complex angiographic characteristics, higher mean J-CTO (Multicenter CTO Registry in Japan) score (2.94 ± 1.11 vs 2.23 ± 1.26; P < 0.001), lower technical success (77.0% vs 89.3%; P < 0.001), and higher in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (3.7% vs 1.6%; P < 0.001). The use of the CrossBoss declined from 71% in 2012 to 1.4% in 2022 and was associated with higher technical success (87%) compared with wire-based techniques (73%). The Stingray device displayed higher technical success (86%) compared with subintimal tracking and re-entry (STAR) (74%) and limited antegrade subintimal tracking (78%); however, its use has been decreasing, with STAR becoming the most used re-entry technique in 2022 (44% STAR vs 38% Stingray). CONCLUSIONS The use of ADR has been decreasing. ADR was used in more complex lesions and was associated with lower technical success and higher major adverse cardiac events compared with non-ADR cases. There has been a decrease in Stingray use and an increase in the use of STAR for re-entry.

[PMID: 37774471 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.08.155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
We examined the outcomes of the Carlino technique in chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs). We analyzed the baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics and outcomes of 128 CTO PCIs that included the Carlino technique at 22 US and no-US centers between 2016 and 2023. The Carlino technique was used in 128 (2.8%) of 4,508 cases that used anterograde dissection and reentry (78.9%) or the retrograde approach (21.1%) during the study period, and it increased steadily over time (from 0.0% in 2016 to 8.3% in 2023). The mean patient age was 65.6 ± 9.7 years, and 88.7% of the patients were men with high prevalence of hypertension (89.1%) and dyslipidemia (80.2%). The Carlino technique was more commonly used in cases with moderate to severe calcification (77.2% vs 55.5%, p <0.001) with higher J-CTO (3.3 ± 0.9 vs 3.0 ± 1.1, p = 0.007), Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention (PROGRESS-CTO) (1.7 ± 1.0 vs 1.4 ± 1.0, p = 0.001), PROGRESS-CTO Mortality (2.6 ± 0.9 vs 2.0 ± 0.9, p = 0.013) and PROGRESS-CTO Perforation (3.7 ± 1.1 vs 3.5 ± 1.0, p = 0.029) scores. Carlino cases had longer procedure and fluoroscopy time, and higher contrast volume and radiation dose. Carlino cases had lower technical (65.6% vs 78.5%, p <0.001) and procedural (63.3% vs 76.3%, p <0.001) success, similar major adverse cardiac events (6.2% vs 3.2%, p = 0.101) and higher incidence of pericardiocentesis (3.9% vs 1.3%, p = 0.042), perforation (18.0% vs 8.9%, p = 0.001) and contrast-induced acute kidney injury (2.3% vs 0.4%, p = 0.012). The Carlino technique was associated with higher procedural success when used for retrograde crossing (81.5% vs 58.4%, p = 0.047). The Carlino technique is increasingly being used in CTO PCI especially for higher complexity lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary calcification is common and increases the difficulty of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS We examined the impact of calcium on procedural outcomes of 13,079 CTO PCIs performed in 12,799 patients at 46 US and non-US centers between 2012 and 2023. RESULTS Moderate or severe calcification was present in 46.6% of CTO lesions. Patients whose lesions were calcified were older and more likely to have had prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Calcified lesions were more complex with higher J-CTO score (3.0 ± 1.1 vs. 1.9 ± 1.2; p < 0.001) and lower technical (83.0% vs. 89.9%; p < 0.001) and procedural (81.0% vs. 89.1%; p < 0.001) success rates compared with mildly calcified or non-calcified CTO lesions. The retrograde approach was more commonly used among cases with moderate/severe calcification (40.3% vs. 23.5%; p < 0.001). Balloon angioplasty (76.6%) was the most common lesion preparation technique for calcified lesions, followed by rotational atherectomy (7.3%), laser atherectomy (3.4%) and, intravascular lithotripsy (3.4%). The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was higher in cases with moderate or severe calcification (3.0% vs. 1.2%; p < 0.001), as was the incidence of perforation (6.5% vs. 3.4%; p < 0.001). On multivariable analysis, the presence of moderate/severe calcification was independently associated with lower technical success (odds ratio, OR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.63-0.84) and higher MACE (OR = 2.33, 95% CI: 1.66-3.27). CONCLUSIONS Moderate/severe calcification was present in nearly half of CTO lesions, and was associated with higher utilization of the retrograde approach, lower technical and procedural success rates, and higher incidence of in-hospital MACE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of preprocedural anemia on the outcomes of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has received limited study. METHODS We examined the clinical and angiographic characteristics and procedural outcomes of 8633 CTO PCIs performed at 39 US and non-US centers between 2012 and 2023. Anemia was defined as a hemoglobin level of <13 g/dL in men and <12 g/dL in women. RESULTS Anemia was present in 1652 (19%) patients undergoing CTO PCI. Anemic patients had a higher incidence of comorbidities, such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral arterial disease. CTOs in anemic patients were more likely to have complex angiographic characteristics, including smaller diameter, longer length, moderate to severe calcification, and moderate to severe proximal tortuosity. Anemic patients required longer procedure (119 vs. 107 min; p < 0.001) and fluoroscopy (45 vs. 40 min; p < 0.001) times but received similar contrast volumes. Technical success was similar between the two groups. In-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACE) rates were higher in patients with anemia; however, this association was no longer significant after adjusting for confounding factors. Baseline anemia was independently associated with follow-up MACE (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.63; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07-2.49; p = 0.023) and all-cause mortality (adjusted HR: 3.03; 95% CI: 1.41-6.49; p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Preprocedural anemia is associated with more comorbidities, higher lesion complexity, longer procedure times, and higher follow-up MACE and mortality after CTO PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited data on the use of the balloon-assisted subintimal entry (BASE) technique in chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS We analyzed the baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics and outcomes of 155 CTO PCIs that utilized the BASE technique at 31 US and non-US centers between 2016 and 2023. RESULTS The BASE technique was used in 155 (7.9%) of 1968 antegrade dissection and re-entry (ADR) cases performed during the study period. The mean age was 66 ± 10 years, 88.9% of the patients were men, and the prevalence of diabetes (44.6%), hypertension (90.5%), and dyslipidemia (88.7%) was high. Compared with 1813 ADR cases that did not use BASE, the target vessel of the BASE cases was more commonly the RCA and less commonly the LAD. Lesions requiring BASE had longer occlusion length (42 ± 23 vs. 37 ± 23 mm, p = 0.011), higher Japanese CTO (J-CTO) (3.4 ± 1.0 vs. 3.0 ± 1.1, p < 0.001) and PROGRESS-CTO (Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention chronic total occlusion) (1.8 ± 1.0 vs. 1.5 ± 1.0, p = 0.008) scores, and were more likely to have proximal cap ambiguity, side branch at the proximal cap, blunt/no stump, moderate to severe calcification, and proximal tortuosity. Technical (71.6% vs. 75.5%, p = 0.334) and procedural success (71.6% vs. 72.8%, p = 0.821), as well as major adverse cardiac events (MACE) (1.3% vs. 4.1%, p = 0.124), were similar in ADR cases that used BASE and those that did not. CONCLUSIONS The BASE technique is used in CTOs with longer occlusion length, higher J-CTO score, and more complex angiographic characteristics, and is associated with moderate success but also low MACE.

Abstract
The outcomes of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) in patients with previous coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery have received limited study. We examined the baseline characteristics and outcomes of CTO PCIs performed at 47 United States and non-United States centers between 2012 and 2023. Of the 12,164 patients who underwent CTO PCI during the study period, 3,475 (29%) had previous CABG. Previous CABG patients were older, more likely to be men, and had more comorbidities and lower left ventricular ejection fraction and estimated glomerular filtration rate. Their CTOs were more likely to have moderate/severe calcification and proximal tortuosity, proximal cap ambiguity, longer lesion length, and higher Japanese CTO scores. The first and final successful crossing strategy was more likely to be retrograde. Previous CABG patients had lower technical (82.1% vs 88.2%, p <0.001) and procedural (80.8% vs 86.8%, p <0.001) success, higher in-hospital mortality (0.8% vs 0.3%, p <0.001), acute myocardial infarction (0.9% vs 0.5%, p = 0.007) and perforation (7.0% vs 4.2%, p <0.001) but lower incidence of pericardial tamponade and pericardiocentesis (0.1% vs 1.3%, p <0.001). At 2-year follow-up, the incidence of major adverse cardiac events, repeat PCI and acute coronary syndrome was significantly higher in previous CABG patients, whereas all-cause mortality was similar. In conclusion, patients with previous CABG who underwent CTO PCI had more complex clinical and angiographic characteristics and lower success rate, higher perioperative mortality, and myocardial infarction but lower tamponade, and higher incidence of major adverse cardiac events with similar all-cause mortality during follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Donor vessel injury is a potentially life-threatening complication of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). AIMS Our goal was to examine the incidence, mechanisms, treatment, and outcomes of patients with donor vessel injury in a large multicenter CTO PCI registry. METHODS We analyzed the baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics, and procedural outcomes of 12,349 CTO PCIs performed between 2012 and 2022 at 44 centers. RESULTS The incidence of donor vessel injury was 0.35% (n = 43). The baseline clinical characteristics of patients with and without donor vessel injury were similar. Cases complicated by donor vessel injury were more complex with higher Japanese CTO score (2.9 ± 1.1 vs. 2.4 ± 1.3; p = 0.004) and lower procedural success rate (69.8% vs. 85.2%; p = 0.004). The retrograde approach was used more commonly in donor vessel injury cases (68.9% vs. 30.9%; p < 0.001). Most (53.5%) donor vessel injuries were guide catheter-induced, whereas 20.9% were due to donor vessel thrombosis. Of the 43 patients with donor vessel injury, 36 (83.7%) were treated with stenting and seven (16.3%) received a left ventricular assist device. The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) was significantly higher in cases with donor vessel injury (23.3% vs. 2.0%; p < 0.001). Of the 43 patients with donor vessel injury, five patients (11.6%) experienced acute myocardial infarction and four patients (9.3%) died. CONCLUSIONS Donor vessel injury, occurred in 0.35% of CTO PCIs performed by experienced operators, was mainly due to guide catheter-induced dissection or thrombosis and was associated with lower procedural success and higher MACE.

Distal Target Vessel Quality and Outcomes of Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2023; 16:1490-1500.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Distal vessel quality is a key parameter in the global chronic total occlusion (CTO) crossing algorithm. OBJECTIVES The study sought to evaluate the association of distal vessel quality with the outcomes of CTO percutaneous coronary intervention. METHODS We examined the clinical and angiographic characteristics and procedural outcomes of 10,028 CTO percutaneous coronary interventions performed at 39 U.S. and non-U.S. centers between 2012 and 2022. A poor-quality distal vessel was defined as <2 mm diameter or with significant diffuse atherosclerotic disease. In-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACE) included death, myocardial infarction, urgent repeat target vessel revascularization, tamponade requiring pericardiocentesis or surgery, and stroke. RESULTS A total of 33% of all CTO lesions had poor-quality distal vessel. When compared with good-quality distal vessels, CTO lesions with a poor-quality distal vessel had higher J-CTO (Japanese chronic total occlusion) scores (2.7 ± 1.1 vs 2.2 ± 1.3; P < 0.01), lower technical (79.9% vs 86.9%; P < 0.01) and procedural (78.0% vs 86.8%; P < 0.01) success, and higher incidence of MACE (2.5% vs 1.7%; P < 0.01) and perforation (6.4% vs 3.7%; P < 0.01). A poor-quality distal vessel was independently associated with technical failure and MACE. Poor-quality distal vessels were associated with higher use of the retrograde approach (25.2% vs 14.9%; P < 0.01) and higher air kerma radiation dose (2.4 [IQR: 1.3-4.0] Gy vs 2.0 [IQR: 1.1-3.5] Gy; P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS A poor-quality distal vessel in CTO lesions is associated with higher lesion complexity, higher need for retrograde crossing, lower technical and procedural success, higher incidence of MACE and coronary perforation, and higher radiation dose.

Abstract
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) can be lengthy procedures. We sought to investigate the effect of procedural time on CTO PCI outcomes. We examined the procedural time required for the various steps of CTO PCI in 6,442 CTO PCIs at 40 US and non-US centers between 2012 and 2022. The mean and median procedure times were 129 ± 76 and 112 minutes, respectively, with no significant change over time. The median times from access to wire insertion, guidewire manipulation time, and post crossing were 20, 32, and 53 minutes, respectively. Lesions crossed in <30 minutes were less complex, as reflected by lower Japanese CTO score (1.89 ± 1.19, p <0.001) than lesions that were not successfully crossed (2.88 ± 1.22) and lesions that were crossed in ≥30 minutes (2.85 ± 1.13). The likelihood of successful crossing if crossing was not achieved after 30, 90, and 180 minutes were a 76.7%, 60.7%, and 42.7%, respectively. The parameters independently associated with ≥30 minutes guidewire manipulation time in patients with a primary antegrade approach included left anterior descending target vessel, proximal cap ambiguity, blunt/no stump, occlusion length, previous failed attempt, medium/severe calcification, and medium/severe tortuosity. The mean duration of CTO PCI is approximately 2 hours (∼20% of time for access to wire insertion, ∼30% wire manipulation time, and ∼50% postwiring time). Guidewire crossing time was shorter in less complex lesions and in cases without complications.

A Systematic Review of Periprocedural Risk Prediction Scores in Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. Am J Cardiol 2023; 193:118-125. [PMID: 36905687 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.01.044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023]
Abstract
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with high incidence of complications. We queried PubMed and the Cochrane Library (last search: October 26, 2022) for CTO PCI-specific periprocedural complication risk scores. We identified 8 CTO PCI-specific risk scores: (1) Angiographic coronary artery perforation (OPEN-CLEAN [Outcomes, Patient Health Status, and Efficiency iN (OPEN) Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) Hybrid Procedures - CABG, Length (occlusion), EF <50%, Age, CalcificatioN] perforation, c-statistic 0.75): previous coronary artery bypass graft surgery, occlusion length 20 to 60 mm or ≥60 mm, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <50%, age 50 to 70 years or ≥70 years, heavy calcification. (2) Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (PROGRESS-CTO complication, c-statistic 0.76): age >65 years, lesion length ≥23 mm, retrograde strategy, and (3) MACE (PROGRESS-CTO MACE, c-statistic 0.74): age ≥65 years, female gender, moderate/severe calcification, blunt/no stump, anterograde dissection and re-entry (ADR) or retrograde strategy. (4) All-cause mortality (PROGRESS-CTO mortality, c-statistic 0.80): age ≥65, moderate/severe calcification, LVEF ≤45%, ADR or retrograde strategy. (5) Perforation requiring pericardiocentesis (PROGRESS-CTO pericardiocentesis, c-statistic 0.78): age ≥65 years, moderate/severe calcification, female gender, ADR or retrograde strategy. (6) Acute myocardial infarction (PROGRESS-CTO acute myocardial infarction, c-statistic 0.72): previous coronary artery bypass graft surgery, atrial fibrillation, blunt/no stump. (7) Perforation requiring any treatment (PROGRESS-CTO perforation, c-statistic 0.74): age ≥65 years, moderate/severe calcification, blunt/no stump, ADR, or retrograde strategy. (8) Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (c-statistic 0.84): age ≥75, LVEF <40%, serum creatinine >1.5 mg/100 ml, serum albumin ≤30, 30<albumin≤40 or >40 g/L. There are 8 CTO PCI periprocedural risk scores that may facilitate risk assessment and procedural planning in patients who underwent CTO PCI.
