  • Title: TEE monitoring for RA-horizontal paradoxical arterial air embolism during sitting-position surgery.
    Author: Ye X, Ma T, Wang T, Ge M, Wang C, Gao J, Li X.
    Journal: Sci China Life Sci; 2010 Dec; 53(12):1405-9. PubMed ID: 21181341.
    Abstract:
    A 36-year-old woman suffered meningioma in her right cerebellopontine angle. Air embolisms often complicate sitting-position surgeries. Because TEE guides the localization of central venous catheters and promptly locates air embolisms promptly enough for effective treatment, TEE is an effective monitoring method for sitting-position surgeries.
