Patent foramen ovale and migraine in ischemic stroke patients: incidence, pathogenetic interrelation and the effects of endovascular closure [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Migraine is a chronic neurovascular disease with high incidence rate and medical-social significance. Despite more than half a century of studying the disease, the pathogenesis of migraine is not yet completely clear.

PATENT FORAMEN OVALE AND DIVING
Although patent foramen ovale (PFO) was anatomically depicted in 1513 by Leonardo da Vinci and described as a thromboembolism route in 1877, it has been ignored for a long time as a potential way to produce pathological conditions. The unifying hypothesis associated with multiple clinical issues, such as cryptogenic stroke, migraine and decompression ...

The diagnosis of atrial cardiomyopathy (AtCM) requires electrical atrial dysfunction, with evidence of either mechanical atrial dysfunction, atrial enlargement, or excessive atrial fibrosis. The diagnostic cut‐points presented are for standard electrocardiogram and echocardiogram studies (see Figure 1 for further detail).

Young stroke patient with patent foramen ovale and intracranial stenosis—a case report
The prevalence of patent foramen ovale is approximately 20% in the global population. In patients under the age of 55 years, it has been proven as a cause of acute ischemic embolic stroke of otherwise undetermined source.

ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic surgical approaches for nasopharyngeal malignancies, including recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC) and nasopharyngeal salivary gland tumors (NSGT), have seen significant development over the last decades. Our groups have expanded the classification of nasopharyngeal endoscopic resections (NER) from type 1 to 3 to ...

Bilateral thalamic stroke in patient with patent foramen ovale and hereditary thrombophilia [PDF]
Patent foramen ovale and hereditary thrombophilia are both known risk factors for ischemic stroke. Artery of Percheron is a rare anatomical variant in which vast areas of the midbrain and thalamus have a single source of blood supply.

Patent foramen ovale and migraine
Results from several observational studies indicate an association between migraine and patent foramen ovale (PFO). Several biological mechanisms have been proposed to explain this link, including shared genetic inheritance. However, there is currently insufficient evidence to support a causal link between PFO and migraine.

A prominent Chiari network can cause cyanosis in infants by inducing a positional right‐to‐left atrial shunt. Accurate diagnosis enabled conservative management, delaying surgery until optimal conditions. This case emphasizes the importance of echocardiographic evaluation in differentiating cyanosis mechanisms to guide appropriate treatment in ...
