Abstract
Quantification of degenerative mitral regurgitation with multiple jets in atrial fibrillation is challenging with two dimensional techniques and may underestimate the severity. We report the feasibility and advantages of vena contracta area in three dimensional transesophageal echocardiography in evaluation of such a patient.
