Abstract
Percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion of coronary arteries remains technically challenging. It shows lower procedural success rates compared with other lesion subsets. It is for this reason that interventional cardiologists have developed many techniques to recanalize chronically occluded arteries. Among them, we experienced some cases in which we used the subintimal tracking and re-entry (STAR) technique. Here we report our experience with a review of the literature.
