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.

The Paradox of Paradoxical Embolism and Recurrent Stroke

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2014
Ischemic stroke is a complex condition with multiple possible causes, but up to 30% to 40% of patients have no identifiable source despite a “thorough” evaluation; that is, the strokes are cryptogenic.
