Transesophageal Echocardiography [PDF]
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1994 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

Transesophageal Echocardiography: Not for Everyone? [PDF]
Stroke, 2007 To the Editor: We read with interest the article by de Bruijn et al comparing transesophageal and transthoracic echocardiography (TEE versus TEE) for the evaluation of TIA or stroke.1 We congratulate the investigators on this important study. TEE proved superior to TTE for identification of a cardiac embolic source in patients with TIA or …

Circulation, 2003 Case: A 36 year-old woman without significant past medical history was admitted with left-sided hemiparesis. Imaging studies confirmed a right middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke with normal carotid arteries. Transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) showed right heart enlargement and a large secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) (Figure 1).

Interventional Mitral Valve Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients Above 85 Years of Age
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Mitral valve transcatheter‐edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) is routinely performed in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high operative risk, frequently including elderly patients. Patients ≥ 85 years, however, are frequently excluded in clinical studies.
