Myocardial infarction (MI) caused by patent foramen ovale (PFO)-based paradoxical embolism is rare, and there are few case reports in the literature.
Here, we report a case of MI in which optical coherence tomography revealed thrombi in the PFO channel.
In addition to paradoxical embolism, thrombus may also be one of the pathogenic mechanisms of PFO in patients with MI.
由卵圆孔未闭(PFO)导致的反常栓塞引起的心肌梗死(MI)较为罕见,文献中仅有少数病例报告。
在此,我们报告一例心肌梗死病例,光学相干断层扫描显示卵圆孔未闭通道内有血栓形成。
除反常栓塞外,血栓也可能是心肌梗死患者卵圆孔未闭的致病机制之一。
