FAQ

How is patent foramen ovale treated? Antiplatelet medicines such as aspirin, to help prevent blood clots. Anticoagulant medicines such as warfarin, to help prevent blood clots. Closure of the PFO with a catheter-based procedure. Closure of the PFO during heart surgery.

If you were born with a hole in your heart that never closed, known as a patent foramen ovale (PFO), you may need a procedure to correct it. Penn Medicine cardiologists use interventional techniques to close a patent foramen ovale without opening your chest for surgery.

Treatment most often requires a procedure called cardiac catheterization, which is performed by a trained cardiologist to permanently seal the PFO.

Your healthcare provider may also repair the PFO by transcatheter repair or heart surgery. A transcatheter repair is less invasive than a surgical repair.

If you have a patent foramen ovale and had a stroke, your provider may refer you to a doctor trained in brain and nervous system conditions. This type of provider is called a neurologist.

People who do not respond to medication may need a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure. Your interventional cardiologist closes the PFO with a small closure device. This is done in a cardiac catheterization (cath) laboratory.

Usually, patent foramen ovale causes no problems. But PFO may let a blood clot travel from the right to the left side of your heart. Your heart could pump the clot into your body. If the clot reaches your brain, it could cut off the blood supply.

Most PFOs require no treatment. People who have no risk factors for stroke or any history of traveling blood clots usually do not get treatment. Your healthcare provider may want to treat your PFO if you have had problems from these traveling blood clots, like stroke. In these cases, treatment for PFOs varies.
