Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a congenital heart defect that may first be diagnosed in adulthood and has a prevalence of 25% to 30%. Although many patients with PFO are asymptomatic and do not require treatment, paradoxical embolism can cause stroke or myocardial infarction. The authors report an unusual case of PFO with a transversing thrombus in an 80-year-old man. The patient's initial presentation appeared clinically as acute coronary syndrome, but he was subsequently diagnosed with a massive thrombus in transit via a PFO and pulmonary embolus leading to right-sided heart failure.
卵圆孔未闭（PFO）是一种先天性心脏缺陷，可能在成年期首次被诊断出来，患病率为25%至30%。虽然许多卵圆孔未闭患者没有症状，不需要治疗，但反常栓塞可导致中风或心肌梗死。作者报告了一例罕见的80岁男性卵圆孔未闭合并横向血栓形成的病例。患者最初临床表现为急性冠状动脉综合征，但随后被诊断为通过卵圆孔未闭有大量移行血栓及肺栓塞，导致右侧心力衰竭。
