Compared to non-CTO, RA for CTO can be performed with a high procedural success rate and comparable in-hospital outcomes. Apart from higher cardiac mortality in the CTO group, the long-term outcomes are comparable in both groups. Elective RA is a feasible and beneficial approach to be used in CTO intervention.
