Background: Chronic total occlusion (CTO) continues to be challenging lesion subset for percutaneous intervention. Last decade has seen tremendous increase in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in this subset owing to improved understanding of the anatomy and enhanced skillset with availability of dedicated hardware. We sought to study the outcomes of CTO PCI in an Indian public hospital. Methods: This was a single-center non-randomized descriptive follow-up study on CTO PCI. The end-points were procedural success, immediate, and late adverse cardiovascular events [major adverse cardiac event (MACE)] and change in angina and left ventricular function at follow-up. Results: A total 389 CTO lesions were treated with a success rate of 87% (339/389). The mean Japanese chronic total occlusion (J-CTO) score was 1.78 ± 0.12 (mean ± standard deviation). Multivariate analysis of different angiographic components of J-CTO score identified tortuosity (p = 0.001), calcifications (p ≤ 0.001), and blunt stump (p = 0.007) as independent predictors of procedural failure. The periprocedural mortality was less than 1%, and the non-life threatening complications were about 4%. The MACE rate was significantly higher in the procedural failure group (60%) than in the procedural success group (5.3%, p |
