patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a rare but potentially fatal combination ( 1 , 2 , 3 ). Early detection of this clinical entity can facilitate delivery of targeted therapies and avoid poor outcome ( 1 , 2 ). Here, we describe a 68-year-old female with

cycles ( Fig. 1 and Video 1 ) with Valsalva. Trans-oesophageal echocardiogram (TOE) demonstrated a small patent foramen ovale (PFO) ( Fig. 2 ), which was thought to be an incidental finding because of the delay in appearance of bubbles in the left heart

Background Thromboembolism-in-transit across a patent foramen ovale (PFO), also referred to as impending paradoxical embolism, is a rare condition. It is most often seen in conjunction with deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism

atherosclerosis in the ascending aorta and aortic arch, while minor or uncertain causes are as patent foramen ovale (PFO), mitral valve prolapse, mitral annular calcification, degenerative aortic stenosis, atrial septum aneurysm, spontaneous contrast on the

diastole ( Video 3 ). The thrombus was entrapped in the patent foramen ovale (PFO) and extended to the left atrium, protruding into the left ventricle through the mitral valve ( Video 4 ). There was no sign of peripheral emboli. The patient underwent urgent

-venous malformations allow passage and thus opacification of the left-sided chambers (3) . Intra-cardiac shunts (atrial septal defect (ASD); ventricular septal defect (VSD); patent foramen ovale (PFO)) with right-to-left flow also result in a positive study. However

to the transducer Lipomatous hypertrophy is frequently seen in this view Mid oesophageal IAS, 40–80° (2D) The presence of a patent foramen ovale can be assessed in this view. Note the insertion of the Eustachian valve near the inferior vena

patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure. This could be due to the altered anatomy seen in HCM. When it was possible to create space between the catheter and the septum, the ICE images were superior in detailing LV endocardium and intra-septal fusion line. TTE
