Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A consecutive series of 132 patients with total chronic coronary occlusions were compared with 1,966 patients with stenotic lesions in terms of angiographic and clinical outcome. We concluded that patients with chronically occluded coronary lesions present a higher rate of target lesion revascularizations and angiographic restenosis than patients with stenotic lesions.
