Early recurrent ischemic lesions in patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale: an observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Randomized controlled trials indicate that patent foramen ovate (PFO) closure reduces risk of stroke recurrence in patients with cryptogenic stroke and PFO. However, the optimal time point for PFO closure is unknown and depends on the risk of

Embolic myocardial infarction associated with patent foramen ovale: a case series

open access: yesКардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика, 2023
A patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a fairly common mild cardiac defect that causes a shunting across the atrial septum. PFO is also a known risk factor for cryptogenic stroke. Much less frequently, PFO is associated with non-cerebral systemic embolic events.
