This review discusses results of these studies, evaluation strategies for PFO and PFO closure, and additional indications for PFO closure. A patent foramen ovale or PFO is a defect in the wall between the two upper chambers of the heart.Patients who do need treatment may take medicines or have a percutaneous coronary intervention to close the PFO. In more serious cases, surgery may be needed. The foramen ovale is a hole in the wall between the left and right atria of every human fetus. This hole allows blood to bypass the fetal lungs. A patent foramen ovale occurs when a hole that is always present in a newborn's heart fails to close as it should once the lungs begin to function after birth. The first in the world to use a new occlusion system to treat patients with patent foramen ovale (PFO) who are at risk of recurrent ischemic stroke. The foramen ovale usually closes after birth. If you have a PFO and low blood oxygen levels or an unexplained stroke, you may need a procedure to close the hole.
