[Patent foramen ovale and stroke].

coalesce into a single orifice that becomes the foramen secundum. The septum secundum then forms via involution of the ventrocranial wall and overlaps with the foramen secundum. The septum secundum does not close fully and an oval-shaped opening remains, which becomes the foramen ovale.17 Prior to birth, the fetus is dependent on the maternal circulation for oxygenation, as the immature fetal lungs do not yet participate in oxygen exchange. As such, the foramen ovale (as well as the ductus arteriosus), enables shunting of blood away from the pulmonary circulation. At birth, when the neonate’s lungs begin to participate in oxygen exchange, there is a precipitous drop in the pulmonary vascular resistance and there is reversal of flow through both the foramen ovale and ductus arteriosus.18 In approximately 75% of individuals, the foramen ovale closes within a few years while in the remaining others, it stays open permanently as a PFO.
