Paradoxical emboli from calf and pelvic veins in cryptogenic stroke. [PDF]

, 2003
PURPOSE: The increased prevalence of patent foramen ovale in patients with cryptogenic strokes suggests the occurrence of paradoxical embolism. The identification of deep venous thromboses (DVTs) in this population would strengthen this hypothesis.

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation can be Associated with Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (ESUS)

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2019
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are rare vascular anomalies. Alternative designations are pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae or aneurysms. Although mostly asymptomatic, PAVMs can cause respiratory symptoms due to right-to-left shunt.
