A AVSD—AV septum deficiency. 3D TEE. 3D high volume, high resolution, and single-beat sample, cropped form the front using the green plane adjustment reveals the AV septum deficiency (asterisk). B 3D echocardiography of the primum atrial septal defect—left sided en face view. C Inlet VSDs. LV en face view of inlet interventricular septal defects. Smaller defects (asterisks) in membranous part of IVS. D RT3D TEE left atrial perspective view of the common atrioventricular valve. The common AV valve is with one annulus and two orifices. Both the superior and inferior bridging leaflets are seen. Triangle appearance of the left sided orifice and the elliptic shape of right sided AV orifice. The common valve consist of five leaflets—superior bridging leaflet (SBL), inferior bridging leaflet (IBL), left mural leaflet (LML), right mural or inferior leaflet (RML) and right anterior or superior leaflet (RAL).
