We report a case of a 28-year-old woman with severe mitral stenosis for which surgical closed commissurotomy was done. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography was performed to assess its utility during this surgical procedure. It was helpful in instant confirmation of the adequacy of the surgery, detecting residual mitral regurgitation, and in visualisation of the Tubbs dilator that is used to accomplish mitral commissurotomy.
