@BillBeckerman @ELSSurgery @VascularSVS @JVascSurgCIT Going to be some nice fleece pullovers this year

@ELSSurgery @VascularSVS Oh cool. You want to “engage new constituencies within vascular surgery.” Apparently like all the community practice surgeons who have a spare $2000 lying around. @JVascSurgCIT is already $550, a substantial sum even now. Is this over 3x better?

@BigVoyage This album sounded great in the OR yesterday, highly recommend

March 3, 2022: Come to the Vascular Society of NJ Spring Meeting and celebrate @FrankCaputoMD’s triumphant return to the Garden State where he will give our keynote lecture on Aortic Surgery in the 21st Century! Trainees/students attend free Register at vsnj.org

@mattsmeds Still a stubborn up-and-overist- 200 shaft length rx ultraverse balloons have been helpful

Anyone doing much pedal arch balloon angioplasty out there? Tips/tricks?

@SinaiVascular @VouyoukaAgeliki Congrats!

A well deserved Jacobson teaching award for @VouyoukaAgeliki from our graduates Drs. Shivani Kumar, Nicole Ilonzo, and Iggy Lau! Thank you for your continued dedication to raising the next generation of vascular surgeons!

@thesurgerylife Yeah but the profunda will fill through the struts!

Something about a certain road paved with good intentions. I (nor USPTF) am not aware of any evidence that screening for PAD reduces costs, anxiety, or amputations in any population. There is ample evidence that overtreating “low grade” PAD leads to CLTI and, thus, amputation. 1/

@vascman @ReidRavin @SinaiVascular I will admit I have stolen this phrase and passed it off as my own on several occasions @vascman

@DanFremed @ReidRavin @SinaiVascular Lets not even get into the terminology for the anastomotic drape! Ok

Turns out the odd Yiddish phrase plays much better in NYC-Hospitals than Delaware. Got some eyebrow raises from some seemingly obvious ones (in no particular order) schmutz , schvitz , schlep, mensch

@ashkan_1670 @PenVascular @Mustapja @dr_ashishg @ATYounesMD @FadiSaab17 @YazanKhatib9 @VAhealthyhearts This is deviation from standard of care which may directly result in damages to the patient.

ALI IIA. 5 days of foot pain and discoloration . Result on the table. Can be same day discharge. Can ALI be treated safely in OBL setting with new devices?🧐 @PenVascular @Mustapja @dr_ashishg @ATYounesMD @FadiSaab17 @YazanKhatib9 @VAhealthyhearts

@sewveindoc @BaldermanMd @DrDeloose @joevascular @SamTyagiMD @FarivarMD #stentarterectomy

@BaldermanMd @DrDeloose @joevascular @SamTyagiMD @FarivarMD A timely case just completed. Supera for CFA disease extended into próx SFA. Sound familiar? Occluded. Jailed and occluded profunda origin. Now fixed w endarterectomy. Restored profunda SFA and lat circ

Anybody else feel the conclusions are already written into the protocol and outcomes? “CFA stenting as effective as surgery after 1 year” I can already see this study being misquoted and misinterpreted. @SamTyagiMD @BaldermanMd @sewveindoc @FarivarMD clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04…

@LorenzoPatrone3 @MacAnsari @FadiSaab17 @K_Stavroulakis @Vascupedia_com

⛔Please try convincing a non believer⛔ Is there anyone out there who really believes in PQ bypass? Which percentage of your patients would you treat with this technique in real life? Which is his role vs endo Vs bypass? @MacAnsari @FadiSaab17 @K_Stavroulakis @Vascupedia_com

@VascSurgMD @BruceTjadenMD @CooperHospital Welcome to NJ Bruce!

Proud to welcome Bruce Tjaden @BruceTjadenMD to the Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery at Cooper University Hospital @CooperHospital.

COVID 19 has limited our ability to have a visiting sub-internship, but we are excited to offer this alternative at @SinaiVascular for 4th year students looking for a vascular residency program. Contact us!

@SurgeryDad Thanks! Thought about it. My usual habit is to reverse and had a uniform single segment far from the SFJ, so stuck with it

@niko_zherdeff @DrPlaquePuller Yes, used a healthy segment of mid thigh GSV

@DrPlaquePuller @DanFremed Did you use saphenous vein (GSV) graft?

Diabetic with non healing digital amps, new ulcers. Brachial to radial bypass at the snuffbox with GSV #comprehensivevascularcare

@sternvascular @FrankHaoMD

@FrankHaoMD And please tell me you didn't leave that exposed Viabahn as the definitive "reconstruction" of the SFA...

@adardik @VascularSVS A mentor and true mensch.

Dr. Herbert Dardik died today. #Vascular #surgeon, mentor, @VascularSVS Lifetime Achievement Awardee. Umbilical vein biograft, distal AV fistula, clamps, shunts, distal bypass, completion angiography, educator. My Dad. RIP.

@VouyoukaAgeliki BID xarelto will still cost my patients about $80/mo according to my local pharmacies. With apixaban recently becoming available as a generic, perhaps this could be a more practical alternative?

Is it time to drop plavix and start xarelto ????
