Abstract

Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) plays an important role in the anatomical, functional, and hemodynamic assessment of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). This imaging approach has been applied to both children and adults with a wide range of cardiovascular malformations. Extensive clinical experience documents significant contributions, particularly in the perioperative setting. In fact, in the current medical era, many consider this technology to be an essential adjunct to surgical and anesthetic management in CHD. This review focuses on the applications of TEE in patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), the most common form of cyanotic heart disease. Emphasis is given to the perioperative use of this imaging modality and benefits derived during the prebypass and postbypass periods. Limitations and pitfalls relevant to the TEE assessment in patients with this anomaly are also addressed.
