متن کاملPatent Foramen Ovale and Closure Technique with the Amplatzer Occluder
Proof that percutaneous closure of the patent foramen ovale (PFO) is superior to medical treatment is still incomplete. Paradoxical embolism is a rare event occurring over decades rather than years. None of the 4 randomized trials published carried enough patients or was followed up for long enough to reach superiority endpoints. All data, however, point to a benefit of PFO closure. Free wall e...
متن کاملOutcome of Percutaneous Patent Foramen Ovale Closure with the Premere Occluder – A Single Center Experience
Introduction: Percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale (PFO) has become a widely used procedure in patients with suspected paradoxical embolism. Despite being generally safe and effective, the minimally invasive intervention has been associated with several serious complications such as air embolism, cardiac perforation, device embolization, device thrombus formation and puncture site probl...

AIM To review the safety and efficacy of percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale (PFO) in symptomatic patients without the use of general anaesthesia or echocardiographic guidance. METHOD All patients accepted for percutaneous PFO closure by our service from August 2002 to August 2004 were included. Patient demographics and clinical information were obtained from clinical records and by ...
متن کاملTriple percutaneous patent foramen ovale closure
Percutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure is mainly performed for secondary prevention of presumed paradoxical embolism. Since a residual shunt has been associated with recurrent events, complete PFO closure is desirable. We report the first case of ultimately successful percutaneous PFO closure using successively 3 Amplatzer PFO devices.
