Table 1:

A comparison of bypassed and non-bypassed chronically totally occluded arteries

All (n = 246) Bypassed (n = 214) Non-bypassed (n = 32) P-value
Chronically totally occluded artery
 LAD 83 82 1
 Diag 5 4 1
 LCx 44 28 16
 RCA 114 100 14
Rentrop collateral grade 2.4 ± 0.7 2.5 ± 0.6 1.9 ± 0.8 <0.001
Regional wall score 1.7 ± 0.6 1.7 ± 0.6 1.9 ± 0.7 0.88
Akinesis or dyskinesis in CTO artery territory 14 (6%) 9 (4%) 5 (16%) 0.023

The distribution of CTO lesions was compared using the χ2 test, and the ratio of akinesis/dyskinesis was compared by Fisher's exact test.

CTO: chronic total occlusion; LAD: left anterior descending artery; Diag: diagonal artery; LCx: left circumflex artery; RCA: right coronary artery.
