Abstract
The 'hybrid approach to coronary chronic total occlusions advocates using all feasible crossing techniques in a manner that maximizes both efficacy and efficiency. We describe a case of right chronic total occlusion in which several crossing strategies (the 'hybrid approach) were sequentially utilized during the same procedure, leading to successful recanalization.
