DOI: 10.1002/ccd.28693
Abstract: Patients with critical limb ischemia often have infrapopliteal (IP) chronic total occlusions (CTOs). While revascularization is indicated to prevent major amputation, anterograde crossing of these lesions can be challenging, with high failure rates. read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2017.09.1000
Abstract: Infrapopliteal chronic total occlusions (CTOs) are associated with a approximately 20% failure rate. A predictive score for successful antegrade crossing could help guide endovascular interventions. We analyzed the angiographic characteristics of 213 infrapopliteal CTOs undergoing… read more here.
