FAQ

A patent foramen ovale, or PFO, is a special type of hole between the upper chambers of the heart. While an Atrial Septal Defect is always considered a structural abnormality in the heart, everyone at birth has a PFO.

However, although clinically very different, atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO) share a single diagnostic code (ICD-9: 745.5, ICD-10: Q21. 1).

PFO closure is usually considered to prevent recurrent embolic stroke/systemic arterial embolization, ASD closure is indicated in patients with large left-to-right shunt, right ventricular volume overload, and normal pulmonary vascular resistance.

An ASD is a congenital heart defect, a condition that you are born with. PFOs can occur only after birth when the foramen ovale fails to close. Our adult congenital heart program is one of the few programs in the nation that cares for the complex needs of adult congenital heart patients.

Generally an ASD hole is larger than a PFO. The larger the hole, the more likely symptoms are.ASDs frequently accompany other CHDs. There are two types of holes which can be present between the upper chambers of the heart: an Atrial septal defect (ASD) and a patent foramen ovale (PFO). A patent foramen ovale is a small, flaplike opening in the wall between the upper chambers of the heart. A PFO usually closes within a few years of birth, while an ASD may remain. ASD is a defect in the septum between the heart's two upper chambers. The septum is a wall that separates the heart's left and right sides. ASD is a birth defect with a gap in the heart's upper wall. This gap happens when the wall does not form right before birth.
