“…In CTO, antegrade recanalization approaches often result in subintimal guidewire tracking. In small series, operators have used IVUS imaging from the false lumen to guide re-entry of the wire into the true lumen (73)(74)(75). Additionally, in a small series of 31 CTO lesions (of which 22 were previous failed attempts), successful recanalization was achieved in 100% of cases using a modified retrograde IVUS-guided approach (76).…”

“…Moreover, IVUS can also provide accurate information of the target lesion such as lumen area, plaque size, distribution, and composition. In a study, CTO length was significantly shorter when measured using conventional angiography than when using IVUS [18]. Therefore, IVUS may also have an important role in optimizing stent implantation and reducing in-stent restenosis rates in CTO intervention.…”

“…The occlusion site in stumpless CTO lesions is frequently just distal to the branching point of the side branch [18]. In this circumstance, the inability to find the precise entry point of the occluded artery with conventional angiography could lead to the guidewires breaking through the false lumen with consequent PCI failure.…”

“…Technika ta opiera się na założeniu, że przejście dystalnego odcinka okluzji prowadnikiem jest łatwiejsze, gdyż jest on bardziej miękki niż odcinek początkowy [12]. Wiąże się to z mniejszym ciśnieniem perfuzji powstającym dzięki krążeniu obocznemu, które jest istotnie niższe niż ciśnienie systemowe.…”
