Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is frequently used in the operating room to assess surgical repairs in children with congenital heart disease. Complications from the procedure are unusual, but the potential for TEE probe compression of normal and abnormal posterior vascular structures has been recognized. We report a case of TEE probe compression of an aberrant right subclavian artery in a patient undergoing repair of an atrioventricular septal defect.
经食管超声心动图（TEE）常用于手术室，以评估先天性心脏病患儿的手术修复情况。该检查的并发症并不常见，但TEE探头压迫正常和异常后血管结构的可能性已得到认可。我们报告一例在进行房室间隔缺损修复的患者中，TEE探头压迫异常右锁骨下动脉的病例。
