However, its role in spinal cord infarction (SCI) is less well-established. A few case reports describe the putative causative role of PFO in SCI. We present a case of a teenager with cryptogenic anterior SCI in the setting of a deep vein thrombosis and a high risk-PFO who underwent successful percutaneous closure.engHSM CARHSM CAR PEDHDE NEU PEDPatent Foramen OvaleSpinal Cord Infarctionjournal article10.1155/2022/2171350.
