CTO-PCI in the real-world often require treatment of second CTO, non-CTO PCI or repeat procedures to treat initially unsuccessful lesions. Successful CTO PCI is associated with numerically lower MACCE at 1 year and persistent symptomatic improvement compared to unsuccessful CTO PCI. Understanding the relationship between the care pathways following CTO PCI and health status benefit requires further study.
