Transesophageal echocardiography guides a range of structural heart disease interventions, especially in older adult and frail patients who are deemed not suitable to undergo surgical repair. Although rare, transesophageal echocardiography can be associated with esophageal trauma, including perforation. Treating physicians should be cognizant of such a complication.
