FAQ

Having a PFO as an adult or older child is not normal. But it occurs in many people. It may be slightly more common in younger adults compared with older adults.

If a PFO exists, a little blood can flow between the atria through the flaps. This flow is not normal. The condition is most important because it raises the risk for stroke. Blood clots can travel from the right atrium to the left atrium and out to blood vessels of the body.

Rarely, a patent foramen ovale can cause a significant amount of blood to go around the lungs. This lowers blood oxygen levels, a condition called hypoxemia. Stroke. Sometimes small blood clots in veins may travel to the heart.

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.

The foramen ovale is a hole in the wall between the left and right atria of every human fetus.This hole allows blood to bypass the fetal lungs. Patent foramen ovale and atrial septal defect closure is a routine procedure to close holes in the upper chambers of the heart. PFO often has no symptoms. Many people don't need treatment unless they're at risk of stroke or blood clots. Interestingly, the presence of a PFO is strongly associated with migraine with aura, migraine aura without headache, and chronic migraine. Most people don't have symptoms.
