Of 200 consecutive patients, studied with transesophageal echocardiography the findings were analyzed with respect to the presence of thrombi, tumors or vegetations. Thrombus formation was detected in 18 patients; their location and associated pathology are described. Tumors were present in 9 cases and in 10 patients endocarditis in native or prosthetic valves. The information obtained by transesophageal echocardiography was compared with transthoracic echocardiographic data. Transoesophageal echocardiography was demonstrated to be more sensitive, especially in the detection of intracavitary masses in the posterior structures of the heart.
