Transthoracic echocardiography is a technique with high specificity but low sensitivity in the diagnosis of valvular vegetations and infectious endocarditis complications. Recent reports have shown the transesophageal technique to be more sensitive. The aim of this study was to assess the comparative diagnostic roles of transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography in infectious endocarditis.
