Intraoperative hemodynamics and events. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) indicated inferior vena cava (IVC) collapse due to severe mechanical liver displacement. Since the IVC injury could result in massive bleeding, the circulation was maintained with a rapid transfusion while observing the TEE. TEE also detected fluid accumulation in the right thoracic cavity. We suspected an injury to the lung and the pulmonary artery, following which hemostasis and repairment were performed sBP, systolic blood pressure; HR, heart rate; â—Ž, start and end of the operation
