The Hype Surrounding Patent Foramen Ovale Closure and Cryptogenic Stroke: A Walk Through History
This article is the first of a multi-part review and will detail the history of PFO closure and the clinical trials that have evaluated the efficacy of PFO device closure. Data favour PFO closure in CS for reducing stroke in appropriate patients and should be considered as a treatment modality.PMID:36275353 | PMC:PMC9524620 | DOI:10.17925/HI.2022.16.1.59

Stroke prevention by percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale: A meta-analytic review
Recently, in the span of six months twelve meta-analyses have been published regarding patent foramen ovale transcatheter closure vs. medical therapy on recurrent vascular events . The trials included were CLOSURE I trial , the RESPECT trial and the PC-Trial . The most important issue is that all three randomized clinical trials had negative results and four of the subsequent meta-analyses conclude that there is no benefit. Patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure appears to reduce the risk of recurrent vascular events compared with medical treatment, according to The Institute for Heart and Vascular Health and Cardiovascular Di...

Amplatzer vascular plug IV for occlusion of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in a patient with cryptogenic stroke
We describe successful closure of pulmonary AVM with a St Jude Medical (Plymouth, MN) Amplatzer TM vascular plug IV. The newer AVP-IV devices can be used for successful embolization of tortuous pulmonary AVM in remote locations where use of other traditional devices may be technically challenging.
