Paradoxical embolism is the passage of venous thrombi into the arterial circulation through a pulmonary or intracardiac shunt. We report the management of a 31-year-old patient who initially presented with chest pain and right brachiofacial paresis. A diagnosis of paradoxical cerebral embolism associated with a spontaneous venous thromboembolism and a patent foramen ovale was made. The patient benefited from thrombolytic therapy and lifelong anticoagulation with good recovery. This case showed that percutaneous closure of a patent foramen ovale needs to be discussed individually.
反常栓塞是指静脉血栓通过肺或心内分流进入动脉循环。我们报告了一名31岁患者的治疗情况,该患者最初表现为胸痛和右侧臂面部轻瘫。诊断为与自发性静脉血栓栓塞和卵圆孔未闭相关的反常脑栓塞。患者受益于溶栓治疗和终身抗凝,恢复良好。该病例表明,卵圆孔未闭的经皮封堵需要个体化讨论。
