Abstract

This E-Challenge highlights an incidental prebypass transesophageal echocardiographic (TEE) finding of a right atrial membrane that impacted cardiac surgical management during triple-valve surgery. Two-dimensional and advanced 3-dimensional (3D) TEE were used in real-time to assist intraoperative decision-making. The findings, clinical course, discussion of the differential diagnosis, final diagnosis, and patient management are detailed here.
