The Investigation of Left Atrial Structure and Stroke Etiology: The I‐LASER Study
Background Left atrial (LA) function is important in stroke, but often poorly characterized. We evaluated the association of 2‐dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography LA variables with stroke subtype (cardioembolic stroke [CS] or cryptogenic stroke

Cryptogenic Stroke and Valvular Strands
Background: Ischaemic stroke can be classified according to its aetiology. In cryptogenic stroke, Lambl’s excrescences should be considered since they can only be detected through transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), which is not routinely performed.

Resolution of Occlusive Carotid Artery Thrombus Treated with Anticoagulation as Demonstrated on Duplex Ultrasonography. [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While the majority of cerebral ischemic events due to carotid occlusive disease result from atherosclerotic plaque rupture, intraluminal carotid artery thrombus occasionally occurs in patients without preexisting carotid ...

Patent Foramen Ovale and Cryptogenic Stroke [PDF]
To the Editor: The articles by Meier et al.1 and Carroll et al.2 and the corresponding editorial by Messe and Kent3 (March 21 issue) illustrate a major problem in clinical trials. When it is not obvious which of two therapies is better, sufficient numbers of events are essential to reach a conclusion.

Etiology of Cryptogenic Stroke
Ischemic stroke is a heterogeneous syndrome with a plurality of potential etiological factors. The routine diagnosis does not always allow the cause of acute cerebrovascular accident to be found, in such cases we talk about cryptogenic ischemic stroke ...
