Doppler ultrasound assessment of minor atrial septal defects in patients with paradoxical embolism

Анналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2021
Minor atrial septal defect (ASD) may be one of the pathways of paradoxical embolism in the brain. Few scientific papers have investigated the relationship between ASD (excluding patent foramen ovale) and the occurrence of ischemic stroke.
