Procedural and In-hospital Outcomes of Rotational Atherectomy in Retrograde Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention

Abstract: Coronary chronic total occlusions (CTOs) are characterized by a high incidence of severe plaque calcifications, which are associated with a high use of the retrograde approach and a low success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the feasibility of rotational atherectomy (RA) in retrograde CTO-PCI remains unknown. The aim of the present study is to examine the safety and efficacy of RA in retrograde CTO-PCI. Consecutive patients (n = 129) who underwent RA during CTO-PCI were categorized … Show more

“…The percentage of RA for chronic total occlusion (CTO) ranged from 9.1 to 25%. The CTO subgroup has been investigated in our previous study 18 . Nearly 90% cases were multi‐vessel diseased and about one third received intervention of non‐RA vessel.…”

“…Similar to our study, a single-center study in Germany that enrolled CTO (n = 75) and non-CTO (n = 317) PCI patients who had RA prior to stent implantation found no differences in in-hospital MACCE rates despite the occurrence of significantly more dissections when RA was employed (8). In an in-hospital cohort of 129 patients undergoing CTO-PCI with RA reported a higher incidence of dissection in the retrograde arm compared with the antegrade approach (25).…”

“…In our previous studies, we have identified age, diabetes, renal insufficiency, ACS, cardiogenic shock, and residual Syntax score as prognostic factors for short and intermediate outcomes (16,17). Despite several studies having reported on the feasibility of rotablation for CTO lesions (4,(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25), only two of them compared RA for CTO vs. RA for non-CTO lesions (26,27). For the studies that compared RA for CTO with non-CTO lesions, none of them was analyzed after correcting for confounding factors.…”
