Atrial Septal Aneurysm may Cause In-Hospital Recurrence of Cryptogenic Stroke.

CONCLUSIONS: The CHALLENGE ESUS/CS registry indicated that ASA was not rare in cryptogenic stroke, and ASA's clinical characteristics included higher age, reduced frequency of diabetes mellitus, and increased frequency of concomitant right-to-left shunt. ASA may be related to in-hospital stroke recurrence in cryptogenic stroke. PMID: 32684557 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
