Abstract

The high prevalence of patent foramen ovale in migraine with aura (MWA) seems to be well established; yet, the possible relation between the magnitude of the right-to-left shunt (RLS) and MWA is not so clear. As a hypothesis, if the RLS played a precipitating role, subjects with a larger degree of shunt might experience a higher number of seizures. We examine this possible relationship between the magnitude of the shunt and the incidence of seizures.
