Percutaneous intervention of peripheral chronic total occlusions (CTO) is increasingly common, but Interventionalists still face significant barriers to successful treatment of CTO lesions in the coronary and peripheral anatomy. The greatest overall challenges are in crossing the CTO lesion and re-entering the true lumen from a successful subintimal crossing. We present a case report of a patient with a CTO of a lower extremity artery, in which treatment with a new, novel system was used to address both of these challenges.
经皮外周慢性完全闭塞（CTO）介入治疗越来越常见，但介入医师在治疗冠状动脉和外周血管解剖结构中的 CTO 病变时仍面临着重大挑战。最大的总体挑战是在成功的内膜下穿越后穿过 CTO 病变并重新进入真腔。我们报告了一例下肢动脉 CTO 患者的病例，该患者使用一种新的新型系统来解决这两个挑战。
