Abstract

Background: A 51-year-old woman with a 5-year history of metastatic small bowel carcinoid disease developed fatigue and gradually worsening dyspnea on exertion, over 6 months. Investigations: Physical examination, transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, and aortography. Diagnosis: Left-sided carcinoid disease associated with a patent foramen ovale. Management: Percutaneous transcatheter closure of the patent foramen ovale.
