ASD or PFO: State-of-the-art echocardiography says it all

Atrial septal defect (ASD) and Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) are two different entities from anatomic, pathophysiologic and haemodynamic perspective. We present a case of a 60 year old female with previous history of pulmonary valvuloplasty and recurrent cryptogenic stroke, that was referred for consid...

description Atrial septal defect (ASD) and Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) are two different entities from anatomic, pathophysiologic and haemodynamic perspective.
