Values as mean ± S.D. or number (percentage). P value as Fisher’s exact test for categorical and Student’s t test for continuous variables. Abbreviations: CTO, chronic total occlusion; LAD, left anterior descending; Lcx, left circumflex; RCA, right coronary artery; TIMI flow grade and frame count; *–Refers to treated lesion.
