Abstract
Out of the various applications of intraoperative echocardiography, the transesophageal approach in particular has become important for surgeons in reconfirming the patient’s disease and making appropriate decisions [12]. The usefulness of this method will increase further when technical facilities and surgeons’ understanding of echocardiographic imaging enable them routinely to examine patients pre- and postoperatively and to recognize irregularities in their procedures [8].
