particularly if it will eventually be studied and evolve as a predictor of procedural success&#46; With new technologies and techniques&#44; success rates in expert centers above 90&#37; are possible with adoption of the &#8220;Hybrid&#8221; approach&#44; with very acceptable complication rates&#46; Therefore the decision to revascularize a CTO is a clinical one&#44; based on symptoms&#44; myocardial viability&#44; and patient preference and should not be based on the ease or difficulty of the case&#46; As such the CTo-aBCDE CTO score is useful by identifying highly complex cases that should be avoided by operators early in their CTO PCI learning curve and rather referred to experience operators or to expert centers&#46;</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The study cohort had modest success rate of only 60&#37;&#44; very low percentage of retrograde CTO PCI and of controlled antegrade dissection re-entry&#46;</p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It is important to note that in the present study&#44; dual injection coronary angiography was performed in only 28&#46;5&#37; of cases&#46; Consequently&#44; the incremental value of angiographic scoring systems that systematically employ dual injection&#44; may be exaggerated due to suboptimal baseline angiography without contralateral coronary injection&#46; Single-catheter angiography provides inadequate information&#46; Dual injection is crucial for determining the lesion length&#44; the size and location of the distal target vessel&#44; evaluating whether there is a significant bifurcation at the distal cap&#44; the presence&#44; size&#44; and tortuosity of collateral vessels and for deciding on the optimal CTO PCI strategy&#46; We recommend performing the dual injection angiogram at the time of the diagnostic procedure once a CTO is identified and strongly discourage ad hoc CTO PCI&#46; This allows for a thorough pre-procedural planning&#46; By implementing the &#8220;Hybrid Algorithm&#8221; the operator who is familiar with all available CTO PCI techniques &#40;antegrade wire escalation&#44; antegrade dissection and re-entry&#44; and retrograde wire escalation and dissection reentry&#41; can decide on the initial&#44; as well all as the alternative strategies&#44; in case the initial approach fails&#44; that will provide the safest&#44; most efficient&#44; and most effective way to re-canalize the CTO in a single procedure&#46;</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In 2014 a new benchmark for CTO success rates of above 90&#37; has been established&#46; Anatomy dictates how and who should perform the CTO PCI&#44; not whether the CTO PCI should be attempted&#46; Similarly&#44; lesion complexity no longer dictates the feasibility of CTO PCI&#44; but the strategy for successful CTO revascularization&#46;</p><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Scoring systems can be useful in several ways&#46; First&#44; they provide a quantitative measure of the likelihood of success and complications that can be shared with the patient and help with clinical decision-making&#46; Second&#44; by providing the means for more objective assessment of anatomic and clinical complexity&#44; CTO scores enable better case selection&#58; while seasoned operators can tackle even the toughest of cases with high success rates&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> operators early in the CTO PCI learning curve can select &#8220;simpler&#8221; cases&#44; referring the more unfavorable cases to specialized centers&#44; or performing them with the guidance of a proctor&#46; Within the heart team&#44; the decision to revascularize and the optimal strategy can be tailored to each patient&#44; taking into account the objective probability of achieving technical&#47;angiographic success with PCI&#46; Third&#44; CTO scores provide a valuable template for guiding review of the coronary angiogram&#46; At least 15 minutes of careful review and evaluation are essential to understand the lesion and develop a &#8220;plan of attack&#8221; &#40;primary retrograde vs&#46; antegrade approach&#44; intimal or sub-intimal and wire or crossing device based strategies&#41;&#46; Fourth&#44; standardized classification of CTO lesion complexity allows comparison of outcomes with different approaches&#44; between operators&#44; centers&#44; countries and even continents&#44; for both quality improvement and clinical research&#46;</p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">CTO PCI scoring systems can be a tremendous resource for both the novice and experienced CTO operator&#44; to aid with case and approach selection as well as to predict procedural efficiency and the probability for success and even complications&#46; The creation of new scores to suit different CTO practices&#44; and the validation of already existing scoring systems should be encouraged&#46;</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0005">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The author has no conflicts of interest to declare&#46;</p></span></span>"

The creation of a score to predict success&#44; with good accuracy&#44; may enable selection of cases that can be treated by any operator&#44; those in which a dedicated operator will be desirable&#44; and those with an extremely low probability of success&#44; which should be considered individually for conservative management&#44; surgical revascularization or PCI by a team experienced in CTO&#46;</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">There are several important considerations that are required before applying the CTo-aBCDE CTO score to contemporary CTO angioplasty&#44; particularly if it will eventually be studied and evolve as a predictor of procedural success&#46; With new technologies and techniques&#44; success rates in expert centers above 90&#37; are possible with adoption of the &#8220;Hybrid&#8221; approach&#44; with very acceptable complication rates&#46; Therefore the decision to revascularize a CTO is a clinical one&#44; based on symptoms&#44; myocardial viability&#44; and patient preference and should not be based on the ease or difficulty of the case&#46; As such the CTo-aBCDE CTO score is useful by identifying highly complex cases that should be avoided by operators early in their CTO PCI learning curve and rather referred to experience operators or to expert centers&#46;</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The study cohort had modest success rate of only 60&#37;&#44; very low percentage of retrograde CTO PCI and of controlled antegrade dissection re-entry&#46;</p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It is important to note that in the present study&#44; dual injection coronary angiography was performed in only 28&#46;5&#37; of cases&#46; Consequently&#44; the incremental value of angiographic scoring systems that systematically employ dual injection&#44; may be exaggerated due to suboptimal baseline angiography without contralateral coronary injection&#46; Single-catheter angiography provides inadequate information&#46; Dual injection is crucial for determining the lesion length&#44; the size and location of the distal target vessel&#44; evaluating whether there is a significant bifurcation at the distal cap&#44; the presence&#44; size&#44; and tortuosity of collateral vessels and for deciding on the optimal CTO PCI strategy&#46; We recommend performing the dual injection angiogram at the time of the diagnostic procedure once a CTO is identified and strongly discourage ad hoc CTO PCI&#46; This allows for a thorough pre-procedural planning&#46; By implementing the &#8220;Hybrid Algorithm&#8221; the operator who is familiar with all available CTO PCI techniques &#40;antegrade wire escalation&#44; antegrade dissection and re-entry&#44; and retrograde wire escalation and dissection reentry&#41; can decide on the initial&#44; as well all as the alternative strategies&#44; in case the initial approach fails&#44; that will provide the safest&#44; most efficient&#44; and most effective way to re-canalize the CTO in a single procedure&#46;</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In 2014 a new benchmark for CTO success rates of above 90&#37; has been established&#46; Anatomy dictates how and who should perform the CTO PCI&#44; not whether the CTO PCI should be attempted&#46; Similarly&#44; lesion complexity no longer dictates the feasibility of CTO PCI&#44; but the strategy for successful CTO revascularization&#46;</p><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Scoring systems can be useful in several ways&#46; First&#44; they provide a quantitative measure of the likelihood of success and complications that can be shared with the patient and help with clinical decision-making&#46; Second&#44; by providing the means for more objective assessment of anatomic and clinical complexity&#44; CTO scores enable better case selection&#58; while seasoned operators can tackle even the toughest of cases with high success rates&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> operators early in the CTO PCI learning curve can select &#8220;simpler&#8221; cases&#44; referring the more unfavorable cases to specialized centers&#44; or performing them with the guidance of a proctor&#46; Within the heart team&#44; the decision to revascularize and the optimal strategy can be tailored to each patient&#44; taking into account the objective probability of achieving technical&#47;angiographic success with PCI&#46; Third&#44; CTO scores provide a valuable template for guiding review of the coronary angiogram&#46; At least 15 minutes of careful review and evaluation are essential to understand the lesion and develop a &#8220;plan of attack&#8221; &#40;primary retrograde vs&#46; antegrade approach&#44; intimal or sub-intimal and wire or crossing device based strategies&#41;&#46; Fourth&#44; standardized classification of CTO lesion complexity allows comparison of outcomes with different approaches&#44; between operators&#44; centers&#44; countries and even continents&#44; for both quality improvement and clinical research&#46;</p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">CTO PCI scoring systems can be a tremendous resource for both the novice and experienced CTO operator&#44; to aid with case and approach selection as well as to predict procedural efficiency and the probability for success and even complications&#46; The creation of new scores to suit different CTO practices&#44; and the validation of already existing scoring systems should be encouraged&#46;</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0005">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The author has no conflicts of interest to declare&#46;</p></span></span>"
