  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We report here two patients with recurrent para-doxical brain embolism through the patent foramen ovale (PF0). The TIAs, which occurred frequently un-der antiplatelet therapy, resolved soon after commenc-ing the anticoagulation therapy.

Case 1, a 57-year-old woman, was diagnosed as having lacunar brain infarction and was treated with ti-clopidine hydrochloride. Eleven months later, she suf-fered from frequent TIAs. Anticoagulation therapy was started after the presence of PFO was documented on transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Thereafter, her TIA disappeared.
