Abstract
Successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of chronic total occlusion (CTO) leads to improvement in anginal symptoms and left ventricular function but does not lead to a decrease in mortality. CTO PCI are technically challenging and are associated with lower success rates and more complications. In this retrospective study, we identify the in-hospital mortality trend associated with elective single vessel (SV) CTO PCI and compare it to non-CTO PCI.
