Transesophageal Echocardiography [PDF]
To describe the role of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in the diagnosis of various cardiac pathologic conditions, we reviewed the currently accepted clinical applications, the contraindications to the procedure, and the potential complications. The Mayo Clinic experience with 7,134 TEE examinations during a 6-year period (1988 through 1993) was

Determination of residual mass in left ventricle by intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography after a giant and floating left atrial myxoma resection [PDF]
Atrial myxoma is a benign tumor of the heart that occurs primarily in the left atrium. Floating or large left atrial myxomas frequently cause functional mitral stenosis, may also affect mitral valve structure and flow, and lead to mitral regurgitation ...

When Echocardiography Is Challenging in Localizing Bioprosthetic Aortic Regurgitation
Transesophageal echocardiography is the main imaging modality for localizing and quantifying prosthetic aortic regurgitation. We describe a case of bioprosthetic aortic paravalvular leak (PVL) where transesophageal echocardiography was inadequate; aortic
