Abstract
This study reports the role of biplane transesophageal echocardiograph y in monitoring surgical repairs of tetralogy of Fallot. In our patien ts, 3 repairs were revised based on transesophageal echocardiography a nd continuous-wave Doppler results, and intraoperative management was altered in 2 others.
