Best clinical CTO cases

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2026 clinical cases submissions

Moderators: B. Faurie, S. Rinfret

Speakers: S. Terashima, T. Fujita, S. Masuda, M. Basile

Summary

This session presents exemplary clinical cases in chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI, illustrating advanced procedural strategies and complication management. Cases include retrograde CTO-PCI complicated by catheter-induced dissection, expansion of antegrade CTO PCI limits with hybrid approaches, successful combined antegrade and retrograde hydrodynamic contrast recanalisation, and staged ELCA-tripsy application in post-bypass microcatheter-uncrossable CTOs. These cases exemplify sophisticated techniques pushing the boundaries of CTO intervention.
