PFO Closure for Cryptogenic Stroke
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2015A patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a common finding in the general population and has been theorized to be a mechanism for ischemic stroke primarily due to a deep venous thrombus embolizing through the shunt into the arterial circulation. There has been much debate regarding the association between PFO and stroke, especially in the case of a cryptogenic ...

Cryptogenic Stroke: Diagnostic Workup and Management
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019Cryptogenic stroke describes a subset of ischemic stroke for which no cause can be found despite a structured investigation. There are a number of putative mechanisms of cryptogenic ischemic stroke including a covert structural cardiac lesion, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, hypercoagulable state or undiagnosed malignancy.

Cryptogenic Stroke and Patent Foramen Ovale
Continuum, 2011In patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale, options for stroke prevention include medical therapy (antiplatelet therapy or anticoagulation) and percutaneous device closure. In the only completed randomized controlled trial comparing medical therapy and percutaneous device closure, there was no difference in outcome between the two ...

Patent Foramen Ovale and Cryptogenic Stroke
Dimensions of Critical Care Nursing, 2007Strokes are the leading cause of long-term, serious disability. A variety of identifiable risk factors exists for the development of a stroke. Individuals who had no definite and clearly identifiable cause for a stroke experience a cryptogenic stroke.
