Facilitators: E. Donal, M. Garbi

Speakers: E. Beneki, P. Guedeney, I. Campos, L. Barbieri, J. Gollmer

Summary

Gain new insights into patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure with this session exploring age-related outcomes, risk of atrial arrhythmia, and patient selection improvements. Review various imaging approaches for assessing residual shunts and compare guidance techniques including TEE, fluoroscopy, and intracardiac echo from recent clinical registries.
