Abstract
There is little evidence on how to select an interventional collateral channel (CC) in retrograde chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention. We aimed to identify independent angiographic predictors of CC tracking and technical success in retrograde CTO percutaneous coronary intervention.
