Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provides high-resolution images of the mitral valve apparatus, permitting detailed evaluation of its structure and function. Mitral valve evaluation is invaluable during mitral valve repair surgery, providing insight into the mechanism of valve dysfunction and formulation of a plan for repair. TEE provides immediate detection of inadequate repair after bypass and allows correction during the same operative setting. Intraoperative TEE is a valuable tool for improving patient outcome and offers the cardiovascular anesthesiologist a role in perioperative surgical decisions.
经食管超声心动图（TEE）可提供二尖瓣装置的高分辨率图像，从而能够对其结构和功能进行详细评估。在二尖瓣修复手术中，二尖瓣评估非常重要，有助于深入了解瓣膜功能障碍的机制并制定修复方案。TEE可在体外循环后立即检测到修复不充分的情况，并能在同一手术过程中进行纠正。术中TEE是改善患者预后的宝贵工具，使心血管麻醉医生能够在围手术期的手术决策中发挥作用。
