Periprocedural myocardial infarction in chronic total occlusion: The challenge of precise diagnosis and prognostication

Key Points Myonecrosis following PCI is a frequent impediment that may impact cardiac prognosis. The frequency of periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) in CTO‐PCI is dependent on MI definition (biomarker and threshold), lesions characteristics, and PCI course. This study identified predictors o...

Zusammenfassung:Key Points Myonecrosis following PCI is a frequent impediment that may impact cardiac prognosis. The frequency of periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) in CTO‐PCI is dependent on MI definition (biomarker and threshold), lesions characteristics, and PCI course. This study identified predictors of PMI during CTO‐PCI and it showed that PMI and peak CK‐MB level were associated with worse clinical outcomes.
