3 The Big 5 in Interventional Cardiology Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) Topics Addressed What is a CTO? Definitions Why should we bother opening it? Indications Jnkbmfnmgnb,.fdn.,g How good are we at doing it? Technique How can we become better? New developments

4 CTO Definition Lesions can be classified as CTOs when there is TIMI 0 flow and angiographic or clinical evidence or high likelihood of an occlusion duration > 3 months

5 OAT Trial 2166 patients with angiography on day 3-28 post-mi revealing total occlusion of the infarct-related artery with poor or absent antegrade flow (TIMI flow grade 0 or 1) MV or severe demonstrable ischaemia excluded OAT Inclusion Criteria CTO Definitions and Characteristics Primary Endpoint of death, remi, NYHA class IV Occlusion Duration 3-28 Days > 3 Months Q-wave MI Mandatory <30% Symptoms Asymptomatic Unresponsive severe angina Objective evidence of ischaemia Absent or minimal Present Viability Not assessed Present Hazard Ratio 1.16, p=0.20 Hochman et al, NEJM 2006

38 The Big 5 in Interventional Cardiology Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) Conclusions Unless there is overwhelming proof that no viability is present and the patient has no symptoms/ no large silent ischaemia, you have no excuse not to address a CTO We Jnkbmfnmgnb,.fdn.,g are still far from technical perfection but with retrograde approach and distal reentry (IVUS guided, StingRay) lesions impossible in the past are successfully treated A low complication rate is paramount
