Percutaneous Recanalization of Chronic Total Occlusions: 2019 Consensus Document from the EuroCTO Club

ABSTRACT


Since its inception in December 2006, the EuroCTO Club has strived to provide the framework for state-of-the-art chronictotal occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Europe and nearby regions. Among its initiatives, the EuroCTO Club has published a set of recommendations regarding the technical aspects of CTO PCI, whose last edition dates to 2012. The EuroCTO Club consensus document discusses CTO PCI clinical indications, techniques and equipment use, as well as operators/centers qualifications. Given the considerable amount of progress made by this subspecialty during the last years, there is the need for an updated document that includes data from recent clinical trials and registries, information on novel devices and techniques, and an up-to-date revision on the training requirements to approach CTO PCI. The current updated consensus document of the EuroCTO club reflects the expertise of European operators to promote the widespread application of state-of-the-art CTO PCI not only in Europe but also across neighboring communities.
