Abstract:
Patent foramen ovale(PFO)is a common congenital heart defect that has been linked to various conditions,including cryptogenic stroke,migraine with aura,and decompression sickness.With the rapid advancement of interventional cardiology,interventional treatment has become the preferred approach for PFO patients.Conventional PFO closure procedures predominantly use metallic disc occluders,which,despite their excellent surgical outcomes,come with unavoidable device-related complications.Consequently,there is an urgent need for a percutaneous PFO closure strategy that does not require the permanent implantation of an occluder,aligning with the"intervention without implantation,implantation without residue"green philosophy to address the limitations of traditional PFO occluders.Transcatheter PFO suturing represents a technique that better conforms to the anatomical and physiological requirements of PFO closure,capable of overcoming many of the device-related complications associated with conventional PFO closure,offering good safety and efficacy.This paper reviews the research advancements in transcatheter PFO suturing,aiming to provide novel perspectives for the clinical management of these conditions.
