Three-Dimensional Echocardiographic Assessment of Lambl's Excrescences on the Aortic Valve.

The present case reports demonstrate the incremental value of three-dimensional echocardiography over multiplane transesophageal two-dimensional imaging in the assessment of Lambl's excrescences (strands) involving the aortic valve.

Three-Dimensional Echocardiographic Assessment of Aortic Dissection.

In the present study, we report our experience of using three-dimensional reconstruction of transesophageal two-dimensional echocardiographic images in the assessment of aortic dissection (22 patients), aortic rupture (1 patient), aortic aneurysm without dissection (2 patients), and aortic tumor (1 patient).
