PFO closure in ischemic stroke: insights from a single-center real-world cohort [PDF]
BackgroundIndications for patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure after ischemic stroke are primarily guided by the Risk of Paradoxical Embolism (RoPE) score and the PFO-associated Stroke Causal Likelihood Classification (PASCAL). Their application in routine
