Definition. Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a hole between the left and right atria (upper chambers) of the heart. This hole exists in everyone before birth, but most often closes shortly after being born. PFO is what the hole is called when it fails to close naturally after a baby is born.

A patent foramen ovale may be difficult to confirm on a standard echocardiogram. Your provider may recommend this test to get a closer look at the heart. A transesophageal echocardiogram takes pictures of the heart from inside the body. It's considered the most accurate way to diagnose a patent foramen ovale.

``In simplistic terms, a PFO is the result of incomplete closure of atrial tissue, whereas an ASD is the result of complete absence of such tissue between the right and left atrial heart chambers.''

PFO/ASD closure is a routine procedure to close holes in the upper chambers of the heart. Before the procedure, you will undergo a cardiovascular imaging test, such as an echocardiogram, to pinpoint the shape and size of the hole and make sure no other defects are present.

Crochetage R wave in ECG is associated with PFO. Crochetage R wave, especially combined with RBBB and TTE, may be helpful in the early detection of patients with PFO. Our study suggested that a patient with crochetage R wave in ECG should undergo TEE with ASC echocardiography to identify PFO.

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.

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a common congenital atrial septal defect with an incidence of 15–35% in the adult population.

If the PFO is not easily seen, a cardiologist can perform a "bubble test." Saline solution (salt water) is injected into the body as the cardiologist watches the heart on an ultrasound (echocardiogram) monitor. If a PFO exists, tiny air bubbles will be seen moving from the right to left side of the heart.

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). Why do these birth defects occur?ASD is a development issue, leaving a lasting hole. Generally an ASD hole is larger than a PFO. The larger the hole, the more likely symptoms are. 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. Patent foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal defect (ASD) are holes in the wall that separates the two upper chambers of your heart. An ASD closure device fixes an opening between your upper heart chambers (atria). This treats atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO).
