Abstract
Background
Retrograde approach has notably improved success rates of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, longer procedural time, increase use of fluoroscopy and contrast dye have been reported in retrograde techniques in CTO PCI. We aimed to study in-hospital and long-term outcomes of retrograde approach versus antegrade approach in CTO PCI.
Methods
We searched PubMed, Scopus, WOS, and Cochrane Central until June 2023 to include all relevant studies that compared retrograde approach versus antegrade approach in patients with CTO PCI. We synthesized the outcome data using a random-effects model, expressing the effect estimates as odds ratios (OR) or mean difference (MD) with corresponding 95 % confidence intervals (CI).
Results
A total of 18 studies comprising 21,276 patients were included in the analysis. Regarding in-hospital outcomes, antegrade approach was associated with lower odds of MACE (OR= 0.34, 95 % CI: 0.23 to 0.51), all-cause mortality (OR= 0.35, 95 % CI: 0.19 to 0.64), MI (OR= 0.36, 95 % CI: 0.25 to 0.53), urgent pericardiocentesis (OR= 0.27, 95 % CI: 0.16 to 0.46), CIN (OR= 0.46, 95 % CI: 0.33 to 0.65), procedural complications (OR= 0.52, 95 % CI: 0.33 to 0.83), target vessel perforation (OR= 0.45, 95 % CI: 0.32 to 0.64). while antegrade was associated with higher success rates (OR= 1.16, 95 % CI: 1.1 to 1.22).
Conclusion
Compared to antegrade technique, retrograde was associated with higher risk for in-hospital and long-term adverse events, and preferably should be performed in more complex CTO lesions.
期刊介绍:
Under the editorial leadership of noted cardiologist Dr. Hector O. Ventura, Current Problems in Cardiology provides focused, comprehensive coverage of important clinical topics in cardiology. Each monthly issues, addresses a selected clinical problem or condition, including pathophysiology, invasive and noninvasive diagnosis, drug therapy, surgical management, and rehabilitation; or explores the clinical applications of a diagnostic modality or a particular category of drugs. Critical commentary from the distinguished editorial board accompanies each monograph, providing readers with additional insights. An extensive bibliography in each issue saves hours of library research.
