Abstract

　Anesthesiologists frequently observe gastric contents on transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) after fasting. We report on a case of aspiration pneumonia after TEE in a patient with dysfunction of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ). Anesthesiologists need to pay attention to aspiration during TEE, because TEE may impair the function of EGJ.
