“…As mentioned in the result section, the site of the regurgitant jet may be difficult to determine from a left atrial view because of broadening of the jet as it enters the left atrium. However, using a reconstructed view obtained from a cross‐sectional plane at the level of the mitral prosthesis it is possible to differentiate valvular from paravalvular regurgitation 9 . Differentiation of valvular versus paravalvular regurgitation was easily made and the origin of the regurgitant jet identified which is helpful in preoperative planning.…”

Three-dimensional imaging of mitral regurgitant jets is feasible in the majority of patients. This improved technique provides additional information to that obtained from the 2D examination. Particularly, in patients with paravalvular leaks 3D color flow Doppler provides information on the origin and the extent of the dehiscence, as well as insight into the jet direction. In addition, in patients with eccentric mitral regurgitation, this new modality overcomes the inherent limitations of 2D echo Doppler by depicting the full extent of the jet trajectory.

“…Accordingly, identification of the jet origin as well as determination of the jet trajectory in relation to the adjacent cardiac anatomy was difficult. Recently, Ansingkar et al 9 have described the value of transesophageal 3D color Doppler in three patients with valvular and perivalvular regurgitation.…”

In this report, we describe a case of periprocedural dislodgement of an Amplatzer Vascular Plug II device during percutaneous closure of severe paraprosthetic mitral regurgitation. The free plug in the left atrium was successfully retrieved percutaneously using a snare inserted through a sheath under live/real time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiographic guidance. This proved crucial not only in guiding device deployment but also in detecting and helping management of complications.

“…While it is possible to assess whether the dehiscence is large or small in extension, precise quantification cannot be obtained. However, 3D-TEE permits such quantification in a more precise way [46,47]. It is possible to determine what portions of the annulus are affected and to detect more easily the independent presence of multiple dehiscences (Fig.…”

Percutaneous closure of paravalvular leaks has been reported in patients who are poor operative candidates. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) currently plays an important role in procedures of this kind. TEE provides essential information regarding the characteristics of the dehiscence, periprosthetic regurgitation severity, during the intervention, procedure-related complications, immediate result of the procedure, and long-term follow-up. Also, three-dimensional TEE enables us to determine the location and number of the leaks, its shape, length, width, area, and extent, and would improve the ascertainment of the causes underlying failure of these techniques to reduce regurgitation secondary to the defect. All of this information could improve patient selection and results of this procedure in the future.
