International Women’s Day 2026 Vascular surgery has long been one of the most male-dominated surgical specialties in Australasia. That’s changing. In 2026, 6 women & 3 men were selected into vascular surgery training across Aus & NZ. #IWD2026 #WomenInSurgery #VascularSurgery

The key message is prevention. Early review by a specialist vascular surgeon allows careful risk assessment, surveillance planning and (where appropriate) planned treatment. Early specialist input can turn an emergency into controlled care. #VascularSurgery #RuralHealth

When rupture occurs, bleeding is catastrophic. In rural centres, general surgeons are trained to perform emergency splenectomy — a life-saving operation when transfer isn’t possible. In specialist centres, vascular surgery services may also offer endovascular treatment.

A ruptured splenic artery aneurysm made headlines this week — rare, but rapidly life-threatening. Most visceral artery aneurysms are found incidentally and can be safely monitored. Very few rupture. abc.net.au/news/2026-02-0…

This blast from the past is an early iteration of the @ANZSVS Vascular Surgery Skills Course run in Waikato NZ for @RACSurgeons Trainees in 2004. This generation of trainees are now all senior vascular surgeons - running departments, leading research, and advocating for patients.

@RKTvascular @anzsvs @drmarkjjackson I remember shopping for parts at the hardware store and putting the cannulation model together with a laparoscopic camera, polyethylene tubing, and a glue gun. Here is evidence that you were there too!

Unlike other parts of the world, gun violence is rare and unusual in Australia. Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, witnesses and the first responders who have to deal with the injured from today’s events. #bondibeach

A third of patients with aortic dissection are actively treated for the wrong diagnosis. Rapid, accurate diagnosis is critical. A CT Scan is the fastest way to a definitive diagnosis. Find out more at thinkaorta.com.au #THINKAORTA #AorticDissection

An aortic dissection means a tear in the largest blood vessel of the body. It is life-threatening, and requires immediate, accurate diagnosis. A CT Scan is the fastest way to a definitive diagnosis. Find out more at thinkaorta.com.au #THINKAORTA #AorticDissection

A diagnosis of aortic dissection is considered in less than half of patients who present with the condition. Unexplained severe pain? THINK AORTA. CT Scan for definitive diagnosis. #THINKAORTA #AorticDissection

Modern aortic care is a team sport. Cardiac surgeons, vascular surgeons, vascular physicians and cardiologists each play vital roles — from emergency repair to lifelong follow-up. Together, we can improve survival. #ThinkAortaANZ @ThinkAorta

… and if you are departing Adelaide after #ANZSVS25 please have a safe trip, and consider checking out the historic Vickers Vimy exhibit just next to the @AdelaideAirport Arrivals Hall. Just imagine spending 27 days sitting in this cockpit flying London-Darwin!!!

It’s been a fantastic #ANZSVS25 meeting in Adelaide. The official program has closed now after a “Challenge the Experts” session. If there is one lesson to take away: prosthetic grafts and infection do not mix well.
