#tbt to the greatest page I ever received in residency

@CaseySeidemanMD to the last I grapple with it; from Hell's heart I stab at it

@adamlud Disagree. POUR is perfect 😜

Calling for an immediate ban on using this acronym

@SPuro88 my god...the call is coming from INSIDE the house.......

@adamlud What?! I love it! Have used it since residency.

When you get unexpectedly called on in grand rounds and have to answer something

@DoctaSnips oh no

@adamlud Welcome to team NUT

Constant source of confusion so I’m just going to decree in my practice that if it comes out of the body, it’s a tube. If it stays inside, it’s a stent. Therefore: Ureteral stent Nephrostomy tube Nephroureteral tube SP tube

@matthayn I thought about making an additional rule for the bladder but gotta keep it simple

@adamlud Foley tube then?

This is known as the Ludvigson Tube-Stent Rule and you have to cite me if you use it

@qdtrinh “The team, led by 29-year-old regenerative medicine physician Oliver Zolman” When trying to get a poster at the AUA goes too far

A middle-aged tech centimillionaire has a plan to make his body 18 years old again. All it takes is $2 million a year and a team of 30 doctors bloomberg.com/news/features/… via @BW No mention of the prostate but whatever.

Bad advice

I could have also said they work like toggle bolt drywall anchors. Is that what you people want

I was giving a presentation and someone asked how UroLift implants work. I said they worked a little like duffle coat toggles and everyone made fun of me for knowing what those are. It's honestly a curse being this cool and fashionable

“Quacking sound and waddling gait is noted, consistent with a duck” — old Radiology saying

When you do a quick case for your partner on your call day so they don’t have to add it on later

I think there are likely many other hospitals who could use a little investigative reporting like this

@adamlud Are they all new?

I’m just getting over COVID and everyone at the hospital’s concern is touching but as I start to feel better it’s getting very slightly alarming how many people are expressing sympathy for how “tired” or “sweaty” I look
