Closure of a Paravalvular Leak With Real-Time Three-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography for Accurate Sizing and Guiding
11/01/2013
We report a case in which 3D TEE with off-line analysis of images to generate en face views of the mitral valve dehiscence allowed a simplified interrogation and definition of defect dimensions. 3D TEE was used for selection of the device...
