Abstract
- A retrograde approach through the collateral channels is considered to improve the success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention for coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO). Various kinds of strategies and techniques are required to improve the success rate of this novel approach. We describe a case in which a CTO was successfully recanalized by the retrograde approach, using a new anchoring balloon technique (double anchoring balloon technique) which enabled the successful balloon passage through the hard CTO lesion.
