(A) Transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) 2-dimensional (2D) imaging of the interatrial septum with the atrial septal ridge shown by the yellow arrows. (B) 3D TEE rotated view of the interatrial septum with the fossa ovalis shown in plane with the ridge (yellow arrow). (C) Cardiac magnetic resonance cine SSFP 4-chamber image demonstrating the atrial septal ridge (yellow arrow). (D) The MitraClip transcatheter mitral valve delivery system safely traversed across the interatrial septum (red arrow) with the yellow arrow pointing towards the atrial septal ridge.
