PFO Closure

Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) is a congenital heart anomaly characterized by a hole between the heart's atria. PFO closure is a procedure aimed at closing this defect. Typically performed using minimally invasive methods, the procedure involves sealing the hole in the heart to restore normal blood flow and reduce risks of complications such as stroke. The procedure is usually done using a catheter and specialized closure devices.
