RT-3DTEE may clarify valve obstruction mechanism when 2D is limited; hypothesis-generating case report requiring prospective validation.
RT-3DTEE can be critical in accurately diagnosing the mechanism of mechanical mitral valve obstruction when 2D imaging is limited, thereby guiding appropriate therapy.
Kannan et al. (2015) studied this question.
