N2 - We report a case where real-time three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography (3D-TEE) was able to detect a complicated transseptal puncture during a Mitraclip procedure which was not seen on the two-dimensional TEE (2D-TEE) images. This case demonstrates the incremental value of 3D-TEE during transseptal puncture.
