Complementary roles of intracardiac and transoesophageal echocardiography in transcatheter tricuspid interventions

Figure 1. Illustration of the complementary role of ICE in tricuspid edge-to-edge repair. A) – D) Limited TEE transgastric views during a concomitant mitral and tricuspid edge-to-edge repair procedure. E) – H) ICE probe in the LV allowing adequate delineation of the tissue bridge after tricuspid clipping. A’) – D’) Limited TEE mid-oesophageal views during an isolated tricuspid edge-to-edge repair. E’) – H’) ICE imaging from the RA showing excellent grasping views. * new orifice(s). Single arrow indicates first clip. Double arrow indicates second clip.
