Compression of the left subclavian artery caused by a transesophageal echocardiography probe in an infant with a right-sided aortic arch -A case report-

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has become an important monitoring device for patients undergoing cardiac or noncardiac surgery. Complications associated with TEE are unusual,but the potential for TEE probe compression of the posterior vascular structures has been reported in baby patients. We present here a case of compression of the left subclavian artery in an infant with a right-sided aortic arch after insertion of a TEE probe.
