This study revealed independent predictors of the success of CTO PCI performed using the Stingray ADR technique. As for CTO characteristics, the presence of calcification in the CTO segment and a tapered stump proximal to the lesion site can facilitate successful Stingray ADR. As for the procedures, the success rate of Stingray ADR can be improved by initiating the technique decisively and promptly, operating the system quickly and accurately and creating a puncture in the distal cap region of CTO under retrograde guidance.
