@farkomd @AWBeckMD Harvest basilic vein to replace diseased segment.

@AWBeckMD It’s really good Adam. I’ve got the runoff and will show in a bit, but did know that would be the first question

Practicing #BEST #CLI bypass was done first. This is an in situ bypass done 6 months prior. Goes to peroneal artery. Wound healing has stopped. No vein on contralateral leg. 2 months prior this segment was treated with DCB. What would be your plan moving forward?

Alright fellas lets make a deal. You: 1. Follow me @najib__rahal 2. Retweet and like the tweet below. And I'll keep creating content to get you jacked and healthy.

@VascSurgMD @farkomd Great post. Critical technique to have in your bag of open surgical maneuvers.

Preach 🙌@farkomd !

@rbarbosa91 Also to control proximal aorta for an open repair of a ruptured AAA.

🧵regarding some of the more novel *non-urologic* uses of Foley catheters. It's been almost 2 years since I originally posted this, so many may not have seen this one (and I'll be doing reruns for a while...I need to spend April getting ready for #ASGBI2024 🧐. (1/ )

@joshlukenichols Sunscreen. Comfortable shoes. Credit card.

Have you ever been to The Masters? I'm going for the first time to Monday this year. Bringing my dad. Dream come true. 🤔 QUESTION: if there's ONE thing you would absolutely make sure to do, what would it be? Can be logistics, something to bring, something to see, anything.

BREAKING: Republican Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is slammed with ANOTHER corruption scandal as it's revealed that he failed to repay a "significant portion" of the money he borrowed from a "friend" for a $267,230 luxury motorhome. This just keeps getting worse... In other words, Thomas essentially accepted a hugely expensive gift without reporting it. The "loan" that wasn't really a loan changed hands in 1999. The shocking revelation was included in a report from the Senate Finance Committee. It reveals that after nine years, and an unclear number of interest payments, the big loan was "forgiven" by Anthony Welter, a former healthcare executive. "This was, in short, a sweetheart deal," a congressional expert witness told the The New York Times. The RV in question was the highly coveted Prevost Le Mirage XL Marathon, described by the grandson of the previous owner as "superluxury, really bougie." At this point, Clarence is taking everything short of giant cartoon bags with dollar signs on them. The problem here is obvious. Anyone with a deep wallet can directly influence Thomas and his rulings. He must resign and face legal consequences.

BREAKING: Trumper MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell explodes in rage after Stephen Colbert brutally mocks Lindell over the fact that Lindell is going broke over his pushing of Trump’s Big Lie — and can’t even afford to pay his lawyers anymore. It all started when Colbert impersonated Lindell while wearing a fake, tacky mustache during last night’s show, declaring, “I have to protect my company. No, no, no, I mean it. I have to protect my company, even if it means killing it!” Today, Lindell blew a lid over it, responding, “Stephen Colbert is a scumbag! Did I spell that right? S-C-U-M-B-A-G. He attacked my employees directly, making fun of them. Gee, I want to protect my company, so I'm not going to continue with $2 million a month lawyer bills. I'm not going to let everything go down because of frivolous lawsuits and lawfare." Then, Lindell threatening to sic his “lawyers” on Colbert, before whining that Colbert and his audience “all laughed about my employees” and declaring that he felt “sickened” after being humiliated by Colbert on national television. Well done, Stephen Colbert!

BREAKING: The Trump campaign attempts desperate damage control after President Biden slams Donald for praising terrorist group Hezbollah as “smart” amidst the Israeli-Hamas conflict. Trump’s team claims that he was “clearly pointing out how incompetent Biden and his administration were by telegraphing to the terrorists an area that is susceptible to an attack.” Biden, of course, did no such thing and has been on top of this conflict since it erupted anew over the weekend. “Smart does not equal good,” the Trump campaign said. “It just proves Biden is stupid” and proves that Ron DeSantis is also “stupid” for criticizing Trump. This was not the first time that Trump has praised America’s enemies and it won’t be the last. He has a sick obsession with violence and the people who perpetrate it. America is safer without Trump in the White House.

BREAKING: Republican candidate Donald Trump gets destroyed by a devastating response from Forbes Magazine’s senior editor after Trump demanded an apology from the Forbes editor after Forbes booted Trump from its “400 List” of the wealthiest Americans. It all started when Trump posted on Truth Social, “I hereby demand a full apology from the failing Forbes Magazine, and their third rate[sic] psycho writer, Dan Alexander, for the many false and libelous articles they have written about me, and for the cooperation they have given to the Racist and Incompetent A.G. of New York State, Peekaboo James.” Unfortunately for Trump, Forbes editor Dan Alexander stood strong and gave Trump a blistering response, telling Trump, “Hey Donald Trump, if you want to point out a single false fact in any of the articles I’ve published about you — or in the book I wrote about you — feel free to do so. In the meantime, I’m going to keep reporting on you — and carefully fact-checking every word that I publish.” Adding insult to injury for Trump, Forbes also issued an official response to Trump as a publication, declaring, “Removed from The Forbes 400, Trump responds as he always has — by lying about his net worth and saying he should be higher on the list. We take extraordinary care in valuing his fortune, and our ownership — which does not include China’s wealth fund — plays no role in that effort. Twice a year, we publish a detailed breakdown of our work, offering a far more accurate portrayal of Trump’s personal balance sheet than the fictitious documents that the Trump Organization has created over the years.” Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Forbes and its senior editor Dan Alexander for setting Trump straight — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a woke new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: tribel.app.link/okwPIHYCIqb

BREAKING: In a devastating speech, iconic actor Robert De Niro rips Donald Trump to shreds, declaring that Trump is “not a bad man,” but “an evil one” who is a “wanna be tough guy” and has “no morals or ethics.” But Robert De Niro didn’t stop there… De Niro continued: “Trump has no sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them. The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination.  Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world. We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags. The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior.  That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse. Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously. So, today I issue another warning. From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America: This is our last chance. Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator. And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided. So what do we do about it?  We have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls.   We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House.  They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice.  Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them. Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect.  Let’s not talk about “democracy.”  “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it.  Let’s talk about right and wrong.  Let’s talk about humanity.  Let’s talk about kindness.  Security for our world.  Safety for our families.  Decency.  Let’s welcome them back.  We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump.” Well said, Robert De Niro!

BREAKING: Republican 2024 presidential candidate Nikki Haley is humiliated on live national television as Meet the Press host Kristen Welker calls her out on a whopping lie about Pres. Biden and the attacks by Hammas against Israel. It all started when Welker asked Hailey if she thinks that it is “irresponsible” for her Republican 2024 presidential rivals to falsely accuse Biden of having used “$6 billion” U.S. taxpayer dollars to “fund” the Hammas attacks “without any evidence or proof.” Haley responding by shamelessly claiming that the money, which hasn’t even been spent yet and can ONLY be spent on humanitarian aid and food, is “spreading terrorism” and is being “moved around as we speak.” At this point, host Kristen Welker didn’t let her get away from her dangerous lie, cutting her off and putting her own notice that “there's just no proof of that,” and that her fellow Republican press it all candidates and members of Congress started pushing that false attack against President Biden “just hours after that the attacks.” Then, Welker pressed on, asking Hailey again, “Is it irresponsible to level that charge when you really don't have any evidence of that at this point in time?" At thins point, Haley had no choice but to point to “evidence” that has nothing to do with yesterday’s attacks, mumbljj I’mg about “what the Iranian” people have done to “freedom-loving people all over the world.” Luckily, Welker didn’t let get her away with this, again making it clear to the live viewers that even the Secretary of State came out and said that there is “no link” between the money that was freed by the Biden Administration and green-lighted under the Trump Administration had anything to do with the attacks — and is still sitting in a bank account in Qatar. Well done, Kristen Welker!👏👏👏 Please retweet and hit the ❤️ to thank NBC host Kristen Welker for setting Nikki Haley straight on live national television — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a woke new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: tribel.app.link/okwPIHYCIqb

Great catching up with one of best attendings I had the pleasure to work for. Not only is he a great mentor, but also an amazing human. Dr Persky taught me how, not only, to become a great surgeon, but a better man as well. Thank you for being you, sir @vesselmd #MedTwitter
