Overview
The vast majority of patients with a patent foramen ovale do not have symptoms.
History and Symptoms
- The majority of patients with patent foramen ovale are asymptomatic. However, an increase in right atrial pressure, in the case of a valsalva maneuver, can result in a right-to-left shunt across the patent foramen ovale allowing the venous circulation to be in direct contact with the arterial circulation. Due to the pathway a patent foramen ovale creates, chemicals or thrombus can travel through resulting in clinical manifestations such as stroke, migraine headache, high altitude pulmonary edema, decompression sickness, and platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome.[1][2]
