Key result
3D TEE successfully demonstrates intraatrial baffle obstruction in a patient post-Mustard procedure.
Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography is useful for visualizing intraatrial baffle obstruction in adults with transposition of the great arteries post-Mustard procedure.
May aid baffle assessment in adult TGA post-Mustard; case report leaves generalizability open.
We report an adult patient with transposition of the great arteries status post-Mustard procedure in whom three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography demonstrated intraatrial baffle obstruction. The baffle could be visualized in both long-axis and "en face" short-axis views.
