PFO is most notorious, however, for its association with paradoxical embolus and cryptogenic stroke (1). Conclusive proof of a causal relationship bet...

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a common developmental anomaly that allows for the passage of blood and other substances from the venous to the arterial circulation. The study of PFO closure has been challenging due to widely available off-label closures performed outside the clinical trial setting. To date, no study has demonstrated benefit of closure using intention-to-treat analyses. Secondary...
