Abstract

In-stent chronic total occlusions (IS CTOs) remain frequent and one of the most difficult and challenging lesion subsets in the field of CTO interventions. In this chapter, we discuss the specificities that make in-stent CTO unique and challenging to reopen, how angiographic appearance can guide our strategy, and how the hybrid algorithm applies to this entity.
