The management of cryptogenic stroke in pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yesObstetric Medicine, 2011
Cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) during pregnancy are uncommon but can have devastating consequences. The causes of CVA in both the pregnant and the non-pregnant state are diverse and require thorough investigation. Recent studies have indicated that embolic stroke in young adults may be caused by paradoxical emboli through a patent foramen ovale (PFO)

Cryptogenic Stroke and Valvular Strands

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2020
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.

Patent foramen ovale in young stroke patients: diagnostic challenge and a new approach to the secondary prevention (a case report and review of literature)

open access: yesNeurologijos seminarai, 2018
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) occurs in about 25% of healthy adults, however, it is significantly more common among patients with cryptogenic stroke. Although PFO might be a direct cause of ischemia, it is often an accidental finding in stroke patients. In
