Compared with successful PCI, failed PCI of CTOs is associated with higher rates of in-hospital death, MI, CABG, perforation, and cardiac tamponade, but the absolute risk difference is small. Since 1991, the overall rates of in-hospital complications are declining, due to significant improvements in CTO technology and operator expertise. Outcomes after CTO-PCI may be enhanced by proper patient selection (resistant angina; large areas of ischemia; and anatomic suitability for antegrade, retrograde, and/or subintimal recanalization) and by reliance on expert operators using a flexible incremental approach to recanalization.
