Abstract

Transoesophageal echocardiography is a useful tool for the intra-operative assessment of surgical repair in children with congenital cardiac malformations. We report the case of a subaortic membrane removal in a nine-year-old boy. Three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography revealed a mitral perforation created during the procedure.
