Patent Foramen Ovale Attributable Cryptogenic Embolism With Thrombophilia Has Higher Risk for Recurrence and Responds to Closure

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES - The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of management on the risk for recurrent events among patients with cryptogenic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.

 

BACKGROUND - The combination of patent foramen ovale (PFO) and hypercoagulability may greatly increase the risk for paradoxical embolism. However, previous randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy of PFO closure excluded these potential high-risk patients.

 

METHODS - Patients diagnosed with PFO attributable cryptogenic embolism were prospectively, without randomization, recruited from January 2005 to March 2018. The relationship between thrombophilia and recurrent events was evaluated in overall patients. Multivariate Cox regression was conducted to assess the relative risk for recurrence in PFO closure and medical therapy groups.

 

RESULTS - A total of 591 patients with cryptogenic embolism with PFO were identified. The median duration of follow-up was 53 months, and thrombophilia significantly increased the risk for recurrent events (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.85; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.09 to 3.16; p = 0.024). PFO closure was superior to medical therapy in overall patients (HR: 0.16; 95% CI: 0.09 to 0.30; p < 0.001). Of the 134 patients (22.7%) with thrombophilia, there was a difference in the risk for recurrence events between the PFO closure (6 of 89) and medical therapy (15 of 45) groups (HR: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.74; p = 0.012). There was no potential heterogeneity in the further subgroup analysis.

 

CONCLUSIONS - Patients with cryptogenic stroke with PFO and hypercoagulable state had increased risk for recurrent stroke or transient ischemic attack. PFO closure provided a lower risk for recurrent events compared with medical therapy alone.
