Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the usual revascularization strategy. Whether or not the presence of a graft on a CTO vessel and post-PCI graft patency impacts outcomes after CTO-PCI is unknown. We sought to evaluate the impact of post-PCI graft patency on the durability of CTO-PCI. In total, 259 patients with previous CABG who underwent CTO-PCI in 12 international centers in 2019 to 2023 were categorized into "grafted" and "ungrafted" groups based on the presence of graft on a CTO vessel. The grafted group was subdivided into "graft-occluded" and "graft-patent" groups, depending on graft patency. The primary end points were (1) technical success rate, (2) target vessel failure, and (3) CTO failure rates at 1 year. CTO failure was defined as target vessel revascularization and/or significant in-stent restenosis. A total of 199 patients (77%) were in the grafted group. Grafted CTOs showed higher complexity and lower technical success rates (70% vs 80%, p = 0.004) than nongrafted CTOs. Of the grafted CTOs, 140 (70%) were in the grafted-occluded group and 59 (30%) were in the grafted-patent group. The technical success was lower in the former group (65% vs 81%, p = 0.022). An occluded graft was an independent predictor of technical failure (odds ratio 2.04, 95% confidence interval 1.03 to 4.76, p = 0.049) and persistent post-PCI graft patency was a strong independent predictor of CTO failure at 1 year (hazard ratio 5.6, 95% confidence interval 1.2 to 27.5, log- rank p = 0.033). In conclusion, in patients with previous CABG who underwent CTO-PCI, post-PCI graft patency was a significant predictor of CTO failure. (c) 2024 Elsevier Inc.
