Long Chronic Total Occlusions: Revascularization Strategies

Abstract: The treatment of chronic total occlusions (CTO) in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a complex topic with multiple treatment techniques and treatment strategies. The interventionalist treating patients with PAD should have both a defined treatment algorithm and multiple techniques available for crossing these challenging lesions. This article will cover techniques for treating CTOs and provide an overview of current available evidence.

“…Guidewire crossing techniques for peripheral artery occlusive disease (PAOD) including the bi-directional approach technique for aorto-iliac and femoro-popliteal artery (FP) occlusive lesion are developing [1]. In general, the open vessel puncture is the standard choice as antegrade/retrograde approach site for PAOD [2]. However, some complex cases do not have appropriate approach sites due to multi-level lesions or some anatomical issues.…”

“…The appropriate selection of the access site for PAOD is one of the most important factors for successful guidewire recanalization 4) . We first report the feasibility and safety of the direct occluded vessel puncture technique in combination with a dedicated 20 G needle and the Hi-Torque Command 18 ST for patients without appropriate access sites.…”

“…In recent years, guidewire crossing techniques have been developed for peripheral artery occlusive disease (PAOD), and one of these techniques is the bidirectional approach for aortoiliac and femoropopliteal occlusive lesions [1][2][3] . In general, puncturing a vessel to access the lumen is the standard choice in the antegrade and/or retrograde approach for PAOD 4) . However, some complex cases do not have appropriate approach sites because of multilevel lesions or anatomical issues.…”

“…The intraluminal technique was performed prior to the subintimal technique because, if successful, its response to the balloon was more favourable, but it took more time [7]. The subintimal technique is known for its superiority in long occlusions and patency because it is faster, and has a higher technical success, as well as high limb salvage rates [8,9]. The false lumen created by this technique rarely develops into recurrent stenosis because it does not consist of endothelium and atheroma.…”
