Comparative clinical and echocardiographic outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting for nonfilling and filling chronic total occlusion in the left anterior descending artery
CABG for LAD nonfilling CTO does not significantly impact long-term survival but is associated with lower graft flow, higher occlusion rates, and less improvement in cardiac function compared to filling CTO.
