Project description:Background The subintimal approach (SA) is widely used in endovascular therapy for femoropopliteal chronic total occlusion lesions. However, when compared with the intraluminal approach (IA), the safety and efficacy of SA in real-world practice are not well characterized. Furthermore, there is a paucity of data on the clinical impact of subintimal and intraluminal wire passage (SWP and IWP, respectively) assessed by intravascular ultrasound. Methods and Results From the IVORY (Intravascular Ultrasound-Supported Endovascular Therapy in Superficial Femoral Artery) registry, this study included 500 patients undergoing endovascular therapy for femoropopliteal chronic total occlusion lesions (SA, n=67; IA, n=433; and SWP, n=186; IWP, n=314). The primary end point was the cumulative 1-year incidence of restenosis. The rate of perioperative complications was also assessed. Propensity score matching analysis was performed to adjust for the intergroup differences. After propensity score matching, the final study population consisted of 59 pairs (SA, n=59; IA, n=348) and 170 pairs (SWP, n=170; IWP, n=293), respectively. Cumulative 1-year incidence of restenosis was comparable between the SA and IA groups (41.0% versus 43.4%, P=0.40). No significant difference in 1-year restenosis rate between the SWP and IWP groups was observed (48.2% versus 40.8%, P=0.40), although the SWP group tended to be a higher rate of perioperative complications than the IWP group (8.2% versus 4.1%, P=0.07). Conclusions At 1 year, both SA and IA showed acceptable results for femoropopliteal chronic total occlusion lesions. Cumulative 1-year incidence of restenosis was not significantly different between SWP and IWP, whereas perioperative complications occurred more frequently in SWP than in IWP.

Project description:Because there is a lack of comparative studies assessing drug-coated balloon (DCB) and drug-eluting stent (DES) outcomes with respect to intraluminal (IL) and subintimal (SI) approaches in femoropopliteal (FP) total occlusive lesions, we compared the outcomes between DCB (including bailout stenting) and DES treatments for this lesion. A total of 487 limbs (434 patients) were divided into the IL (n = 344, DCB: n = 268, DES: n = 76) and SI (n = 143, DCB: n = 83, DES: n = 60) approach groups. The primary outcome was a major adverse limb event (MALE), defined as above-ankle amputation or repeat revascularization of the index limb. Secondary outcomes included clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR), loss of clinical patency, and all-cause death. After adjustment, in each IL and SI approach, the 2-year rates of MALE (p = 0.180 and p = 0.236, respectively), TLR, loss of clinical patency, and all-cause death were similar between the DCB and DES groups. In the DCB and DES groups, both primary and secondary outcomes were similar between the IL and SI approaches. DCB and DES strategies for patients presenting with FP total occlusive lesions demonstrated similar outcomes regardless of the IL or SI approach.Clinical Trial Registration: NCT02748226.

Project description:Background/aimsWhether the presence of chronic total occlusion (CTO) affects patency after stenting in femoropopliteal lesions is unknown. We determined the effects of plain balloon angioplasty (POBA) in comparison with those of stenting on patency for femoropopliteal CTO and stenosis (non-CTO).MethodsWe analyzed data from the Korean Vascular Intervention Society Endovascular Therapy in Lower-Limb Artery Diseases Registry, a multicenter cohort of patients with lower extremity peripheral arterial disease. Data from 1,329 patients and 1558 limbs treated with endovascular intervention for at least one femoropopliteal lesion were evaluated.ResultsAmong the 1,558 limbs, 345, 432, 275, and 506 were in the non-CTO-POBA, non-CTO-stent, CTO-POBA, and CTO-stent groups, respectively. During follow-up, loss of clinical primary patency, a composite of freedom from restenosis or clinically driven target lesion revascularization, occurred in 65 (18.8%), 68 (15.7%), 62 (22.5%), and 113 limbs (22.3%) in the non-CTO-POBA, non-CTO-stent, CTO-POBA, and CTO-stent groups, respectively. The patients in the non-CTO-stent group showed a significantly better clinical primary patency than those in the no-CTO-POBA group, whereas those in the CTO-stent and CTO-POBA groups showed no significant differences. After inverse probability of treatment weighting to balance the differences among covariates between the non-CTO-stent and non-CTO-POBA groups, the non-CTO-stent group still showed superior clinical primary patency as compared with the non-CTO-POBA group.ConclusionIn the patients with femoropopliteal stenosis without CTO, stenting resulted in better clinical outcomes than balloon angioplasty. The presence of CTO in the femoropopliteal lesion should be considered when selecting a suitable device for performing endovascular procedures.

Project description:Endovascular therapy (EVT) was performed in two cases with chronic total occlusion (CTO) of superficial femoral artery. In these cases, angioscopy was deployed in the backyard of the CTO lesion from popliteal artery retrogradely, then the guidewire was advanced from antegrade. When the wire crossed the distal of the CTO lesion, the wire penetration was clearly visualized by the retrograde-angioscopy. Therefore, wire crossing of CTO into the distal true lumen was certainly confirmed, and EVT was successful. <Learning objective: Angioscopy-guided endovascular therapy for chronic total occlusion was useful not only to evaluate thrombus and plaque in situ visually, but also to successfully perform guidewire crossing.>.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough vessels have the potential to recover following successful recanalization of chronic total occlusion (CTO), evidence is limited about the clinical significance of slow flow (SF) phenomenon after recanalization. The aim of this study was to evaluate the determinants, development and prognostic impact of SF after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for CTO.MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort study, 500 patients were consecutively enrolled undergoing CTO PCI and consecutive follow-up angiography in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, between 2015 and 2020. Coronary flow was assessed by corrected Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) frame count (CTFC). The association between SF and outcomes of CTO PCI was evaluated by analyzing the clinical, angiographic, and procedural characteristics.ResultsSF was observed in 29 (5.8%) patients immediately after CTO PCI. Prior myocardial infraction, right coronary artery (RCA) revascularization and lack of bilateral collaterals were independent predictors of SF. SF was associated with increased risks of periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) [adjusted odds ratio (adOR): 4.12; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.68-10.07; P=0.002] and target lesion restenosis (adOR: 2.50; 95% CI: 1.10-5.72; P=0.030). In patients with baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤60%, systolic improvement was compromised in the SF group (LVEF: 55.4%±9.6% in follow up vs. 52.1%±9.4% before CTO PCI, P=0.147) compared with that of the normal group (LVEF: 55.7%±9.3% vs. 51.6%±8.5%, P<0.001).ConclusionsSF has a significant influence on the prognosis of patients undergoing CTO PCI. Achieving normal coronary flow is essential in CTO revascularization.

Project description:IntroductionFibrosing mediastinitis (FM) is a rare disease characterized by excessive proliferation of fibrous tissue in the mediastinum and can cause bronchial stenosis, superior vena cava obstruction, pulmonary artery and vein stenosis, etc. CASE PRESENTATION: An aging patient with intermittent chest tightness and shortness of breath was diagnosed with FM associated pulmonary hypertension (FM-PH) by echocardiography and enhanced CT of the chest, and CT pulmonary artery (PA)/ pulmonary vein (PV) imaging revealed PA and PV stenosis. Selective angiography revealed complete occlusion of the right upper PV, and we performed endovascular intervention of the total occluded PV. After failure of the antegrade approach, the angiogram revealed well-developed collaterals of the occluded RSPV-V2b, so we chose to proceed via the retrograde approach. We successfully opened the occluded right upper PV and implanted a stent.ConclusionsThis report may provide new management ideas for the interventional treatment of PV occlusion.

Project description:We present a case of successful percutaneous revascularization of a chronic total coronary occlusion due to in-stent restenosis. The CrossBoss catheter (BridgePoint Medical, Minneapolis, MN, USA) was used initially because it is reported to be effective in this setting with a low risk of exiting occluded stents. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a CrossBoss penetrating through stent struts into the subintimal space. The case was completed via the retrograde approach with 'rendezvous in coronary'. <Learning objective: Recognize the potential of the CrossBoss catheter to exit between stent struts within chronic total occlusions. Appreciate the need to check the position of the CrossBoss catheter with respect to stents within a chronic total occlusion. Identify the potential for 'rendezvous in coronary' within the subintimal space with the CrossBoss catheter and a retrograde guidewire.>.

Project description:AimsDespite refinements in balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA), total occlusion remains a challenge in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Owing to their low success and high complication rates, most interventional cardiologists are reluctant to address total occlusion, and there is a paucity of literature on BPA performance in total occlusion. We aimed to classify total occlusion according to morphology and present an illustrative approach for devising a tailored treatment strategy for each distinct type of total occlusion.Methods and resultsAll patients diagnosed with CTEPH who underwent BPA between May 2018 and May 2022 at Fuwai Hospital in Beijing, China, were included retrospectively. A total of 204 patients with CTEPH who underwent BPA were included in this study. Among these, 38 occluded lesions were addressed in 33 patients. Based on the morphology, we categorized the lesions into three groups: pointed-head, round-head, and orifice occlusions. Pointed-head occlusion could be successfully addressed using soft-tip wire, round-head occlusion warranted hard-tip wire and stronger backup, and orifice occlusion warranted the strongest backup force. The success rates for each group were as follows: pointed-head (95.45%), round-head (46.15%), and orifice occlusion (33.33%), with orifice occlusion having the highest complication rate (50%). The classification of occlusion was associated with BPA success (round-head occlusion vs. pointed-head occlusion, OR 24.500, 95% CI 2.498-240.318, P = 0.006; orifice occlusion vs. pointed-head occlusion, OR 42.000, 95% CI 3.034-581.434, P = 0.005).ConclusionsOcclusion morphology has a significant impact on BPA success and complication rates. A treatment strategy tailored to each specific occlusive lesion, as outlined in the present study, has the potential to serve as a valuable guide for clinical practitioners.

Project description:BackgroundTechniques for treating difficult chronic total occlusions (CTOs) have evolved with the discovery of the tip detection-antegrade dissection re-entry (TDADR) guided by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). This case demonstrates TDADR as a viable bailout in failed subintimal tracking and re-entry (STAR) technique.Case summaryA 78-year-old man with stable angina on optimal medical therapy had exertional angina pectoris secondary to a residual CTO lesion of the left circumflex coronary (LCX) artery. Percutaneous coronary intervention was performed for a mid-LCX CTO with a blunt proximal stump where the dissection plane expanded along the main vessel and side branch 2. Due to lack of promising collaterals for the retrograde approach, STAR successfully recanalized side branch 1. As main vessel failed to be recanalized, we proceeded with an AnteOwl IVUS-guided TDADR, intending guidewire penetration into the true lumen from the middle of the dissection plane at the main vessel, proximal to side branch 2 origin. Accurate wiring was achieved, and a guidewire was placed on side branch 2 for protection. After stent placement in the main vessel and kissing inflation, cutting balloon dilatation was performed to create re-entries for the STAR-induced extended main vessel haematoma. The procedure resulted in complete revascularization of main vessel and side branches. At 12-month follow-up, no further angina was reported, and coronary computed tomography showed patent side branches with no significant in-stent restenosis.DiscussionImaging-based TDADR method was effective in our present case despite failed STAR technique. Limited IVUS and operator availability may become a barrier in implementing TDADR.
