AbstractA 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.
