Postoperative transesophageal echocardiography in the intensive care unit (midesophageal long axis view) revealed systolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral leaflet into the left ventricular outflow tract. LA = left atrium; LV = left ventricle; Ao = aorta; AML = anterior mitral leaflet. An additional movie file shows this in more detail (see Additional file 2)
