The management of cryptogenic stroke in pregnancy.

E A Orchard1, N Wilson1, O J M Ormerod1.   

Abstract

Cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) during pregnancy are uncommon but can have devastating consequences. The causes of CVA in both the pregnant and the non-pregnant state are diverse and require thorough investigation. Recent studies have indicated that embolic stroke in young adults may be caused by paradoxical emboli through a patent foramen ovale (PFO), suggesting that the presence of a PFO should be specifically sought in pregnant or postpartum women presenting with CVA. This review will outline the causes of CVAs in pregnancy and the role of paradoxical emboli, with a focus on PFO.
