DOI: 10.1002/jcu.23325
Abstract: A patent foramen ovale, which is present in up to 25% of the population, is a risk factor for cryptogenic stroke (which accounts for 15%–40% of strokes) and transient ischemic attack via paradoxical embolism. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00701-021-04971-4
Abstract: Percutaneous stereotactic radiofrequency rhizotomy (PSR) for trigeminal neuralgia most commonly utilizes 2D fluoroscopy for intraoperative needle guidance into the foramen ovale (FO). We describe two cases in which needle advancement into FO was unachievable despite… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10072-020-04922-4
Abstract: Objective Systematic reviews suggest that patent foramen ovale closure (PFOc) is performed percutaneously with low complication rates. We did a network meta-analysis (NMA) comparing devices for PFO closures, evaluating safety and efficacy of transcatheter PFOc… read more here.
