Media type: E-Article Title: How opening two chronic total occlusions may be easier than just one Contributor: Indermuhle, Andreas; Thomas, Martyn; Redwood, Simon imprint: Wiley, 2012 Published in: Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions Language: English DOI: 10.1002/ccd.23299 ISSN: 1522-1946; 1522-726X Keywords: Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine ; Radiology, Nuclear Medicine and imaging ; General Medicine Origination: Footnote: Description: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Recanalization of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) via grafts has been described previously. However, the insertion of the graft into the distal vessel is often characterized by an unfavorable entry angle which renders an antegrade approach challenging. In the present case, we describe how retrograde recanalization of the proximal right coronary artery (RCA) via a right internal mammary artery graft facilitated antegrade revascularization of the CTO of the RCA. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.</jats:p>
