We present the case of a 45-year-old woman (62 kg, 160 cm) who suffered an ischemic stroke associated with patent foramen ovale (PFO) with high-risk anatomical features. The defect was percutaneously closed using a LifeTech CeraFlex PFO 30 mm × 25 mm device deployed via a 12 Fr sheath after multiple implantation attempts. Following release, the right atrial disc exhibited a concave deformation, termed the 'inverted tulip,' which prolonged the procedure and resulted in a significant residual shunt. The shunt resolved spontaneously at the 1-month echocardiographic follow-up.
我们报告了一例45岁女性(体重62kg,身高160cm)的病例,该患者患有与卵圆孔未闭(PFO)相关的缺血性中风,且具有高危解剖特征。在多次植入尝试后,通过12F鞘管使用LifeTech CeraFlex 30mm×25mm PFO封堵器经皮闭合缺损。释放后,右心房盘呈现凹形变形,称为“倒郁金香”,这延长了手术时间并导致明显的残余分流。在1个月的超声心动图随访中分流自发消失。
