Stroke as an Initial Presentation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Case Report
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Malignancy and ischemic stroke are major causes of global morbidity and mortality. Thromboembolic strokes secondary to malignancy are uncommon but represent a critical consideration in cryptogenic stroke. We report the case of a 46‐year‐old female with no significant past medical history who presented with acute rightward gaze deviation. Brain

Clinical Neuroimaging, Volume 3, Issue 1, 2026.ABSTRACT Background and purpose Detection of patent foramen ovale (PFO) has become important with the increasing use of left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) for advanced heart failure. After LVAD implantation there may be increased right to left shunting through a PFO causing hypoxemia.

Silent Atrial Fibrillation and Cryptogenic Strokes [PDF]
The American Journal of Medicine, 2017 A new suspected cause of cryptic strokes is "silent atrial fibrillation." Pacemakers and other implanted devices allow continuous recording of cardiac rhythm for months or years. They have discovered that short periods of atrial fibrillation lasting minutes or hours are frequent and usually are asymptomatic. A meta-analysis of 50 studies involving more

Migraine and patent foramen ovale: correlation, coexistence, dependence. A narrative review
Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 307-321, January 2026.Plain Language Summary This review looked at what scientists know about the connection between migraine and a small heart opening called a patent foramen ovale (PFO). It showed that people with migraine, especially with aura, often have PFO, but it is not certain whether closing this heart opening helps prevent strokes in these patients.

Associating cryptogenic ischemic stroke in the young with cardiovascular risk factor phenotypes
Scientific Reports, 2021 Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) in the young is increasing in prevalence and the largest subtype within this cohort is cryptogenic. To curb this trend, new ways of defining cryptogenic stroke and associated risk factors are needed.
