摘要

Data on percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for long chronic total occlusions (CTOs) are limited. We sought to identify temporal trends in PCI for long CTOs. We studied patients undergoing CTO-PCI between January 2015 and December 2022. Long CTO was defined as an occlusion length of ≥ 20 mm. The study population consisted of 10,302 patients, of whom 5,627 (54.6%) had a long CTO. Of these, 1,937 CTOs (34.4%) underwent primary retrograde approach and 1,486 CTOs (26.4%) underwent reverse controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking (CART). Reverse CART had a higher technical success rate than retrograde wiring and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided wiring after antegrade wiring (94.7%, 91.0%, and 81.6%, respectively), a longer guidewire crossing time (124, 92, and 85 min, respectively), and a higher incidence of coronary perforation (8.5%, 4.9%, and 6.3%, respectively) (P < 0.01 for all). For long CTOs with good distal landing without side branches, the use of primary retrograde approach and reverse CART decreased over time from 39.9% to 27.3% and from 36.3% to 20.1%, respectively, whereas the use of antegrade wiring and IVUS-guided wiring after antegrade wiring increased from 46.6% to 58.7% and from 1.0% to 8.7%, respectively (P for trend < 0.01 for all). In PCI for long CTOs, reverse CART was the most commonly used re-entry technique. For long CTOs with good distal landing without side branches, the use of primary retrograde approach and reverse CART decreased, whereas the use of antegrade wiring and IVUS-guided wiring after antegrade wiring increased.

Graphical abstract

Trends, Strategies, and Procedural Outcomes of PCI for Long CTOs. The rate of reverse CART decreased from 36.3% to 20.1% (P for trend < 0.01) for long CTOs with good distal landing without side branches, and from 24.8% to 23.1% (P for trend = 0.29) for long CTOs with poor distal landing or a distal cap bifurcation. ADR = antegrade dissection and re-entry; AWE = antegrade wire escalation; CTO = chronic total occlusion; IVUS = intravascular ultrasound; MACCE = major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events; CART = controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking; RDR = retrograde dissection and re-entry; RWE = retrograde wire escalation; PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention.
