Abstract:
Intravascular ultrasound analysis of 70 chronic total occlusions (CTOs), conducted either before intervention or following dilation of a 1.5-mm balloon, showed that older CTOs have more complex plaque composition including a larger calcific burden. This may explain the adverse revascularization profile of older CTOs.
