BACKGROUND: Atrial septal defects (ASD), including patent foramen ovale, have been linked to an increased prevalence of migraine headaches in the general population. A similar association with migraine is speculated for iatrogenic ASD due to atrial septal puncture during catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS: A total of 2,069 patients who underwent catheter ablation for AF at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN between January 2001 and December 2008 were scheduled for follow-up at least at 3 month...
