Popis: Background In the last years the improvement of interventional techniques for the treatment of coronary total occlusions (CTO) trough percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) allowed a significant increase of the number and success rate of these procedures. At the same time, transradial access is increasingly being used for CTO–PCI even though there are concerns about its efficacy in this setting because of the higher procedural complexity. Aim of our study was to review the procedural success of all the CTO–PCI performed in our center according to the vascular access utilized. Methods We retrospectively evaluated all the CTO–PCI performed in our center from January 2018 to December 2019. These procedures were divided in two groups according to the vascular access employed: all femoral access procedures (Group 1) or procedures with at least one radial access (Group 2). The primary end–point of the study was the procedural success. Major procedural complications, the duration of the procedure and the volume of contrast used were also evaluated. Results A total of 66 CTO procedures have been performed: 15 procedures in Group 1 (66 ± 14 years, 80% males) and 51 in Group 2 (66 ± 9 years; 80% males, P= NS). In Group 2, 14 procedures were performed using only radial access whereas in 38 procedures a combination of radial and femoral access have been utilized. There were no significant differences in the main cardiovascular risk factors between the two groups. In Group 2, 5 procedures were performed by retrograde approach while in Group 1 all procedures were performed by antegrade approach. There were no significant differences between Group 1 and Group 2 in terms of contrast volume used (376 ± 137 mL and 345 ± 101 mL respectively, P=0.40) or in terms of procedure time duration (132 ± 49 min and 149 ± 71 min respectively, p=0.13). Procedural success was similar in the two groups: 86% in Group 1 and 80% in Group 2 ( P=0.86). There was one only major clinical complications in group 1 ( one stroke) and no complications in Group 2. Conclusion In our experience, the use of radial access alone or in combination with a single femoral access is safe and effective to perform CTO–PCI.
