A Very Rare Complication of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) Intervention: Tip of Corsair Micro-Catheter Punctured By Guide-Wire

Abstract

Intervention of chronic total occlusion (CTO) requires long-term experience and attention. Despite new techniques and guide-wires, the success rate is lower than non-CTO intervention. Also CTO intervention has risk for vessel dissection and perforation. In this case, we present at punctured of corsair micro catheter by the guide-wire during CTO intervention.

Kronik Total Oklüzyon (KTO) Girişiminin Nadir Bir Komplikasyonu: Korsair Mikro-Kateter Ucunun Kılavuz Tel ile Delinmesi

Abstract

Kronik total oklüzyon (KTO) girişimleri uzun süreli deneyim ve dikkat gerektirir. Yeni tekniklere ve kılavuz tellere rağmen başarı oranı non-KTO girişimlerine göre daha düşüktür. Ayrıca KTO girişimleri damar diseksiyonu ve perforasyonu riski taşır. Bu makalede KTO girişimi sırasında kılavuz tel tarafından delinen korsair mikro-kateter olgusunu sunuyoruz.
