Research Notes on Paradoxical Embolism


A paradoxical embolism is a kind of stroke or other form of arterial thrombosis caused by embolism of a thrombus (blood clot) of venous origin through a lateral opening in the heart, typically an atrial septal defect. …read more from Wikipedia

When an embolus enters the arterial circulation, it can block an artery in the brain, causing a stroke. Septal defect repair is recommended to prevent such an occurrence.
