Abstract
The images and videos presented in this case report demonstrate the utility of live three-dimensional (3D) transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in guiding the percutaneous closure of paravalvular leak (PVL). This method provides high-quality real time assistance for transseptal puncture and deployment of the closure device through the PVL.
