    Author: Artto V, Anttila V, Rantanen K, Kallela M, Färkkilä M.
    Journal: Headache; 2009 Jan; 49(1):146-7. PubMed ID: 18549412.
    Abstract:
    The association between patent foramen ovale, ischemic stroke, and migraine with aura is well known. It is, however, complicated and generates a considerable debate about the features and clinical consequences of the phenomenon. We report a case of a woman for whom patent foramen ovale has possibly acted as an inducer of both migraine attacks and ischemic stroke.
