Introduction. In subjects aged <55 years, the association between patent foramen ovale (PFO) and cryptogenetic cerebrovascular (CV) events is well established. In the clinical management of the PFO, a thrombophilic screening including homocysteinaemia (Hcy) determination and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase polymorphism (MTHFR) evaluation for the C677T gene are recommended. …
