| Core Tip |
Cardiovascular guidelines give a Class III recommendation against performing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on chronically occluded saphenous vein grafts (SVG). Given contemporary advances in SVG intervention, the goal of this study was to reassess the outcomes of PCI for totally occluded SVG in 35 consecutive patients. PCI was initially successful in 29/35 (83%) SVG occlusions. However, at 3 years only 30% of patients survived without a major cardiac event. Although PCI of totally occluded SVG can be performed with a high procedural success rate, its clinical utility remains limited by poor follow-up outcomes. |
