I'm thrilled to share my first 1st-author paper, stemming from my research on primary hyperparathyroidism! Thank you @doctrjp1 @DrTonyEskander @woo_minna @dpinc3 @HabashiRogeh @SurgJournal @TheAAES You can access the article here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

This surgical technique paper describes conversion THA using the anterior-based muscle sparing approach, enabling the surgeon to perform an anterior-based THA and remove prox femoral hardware from the same interval. @UofTSurgery @Sunnybrook @dpinc3 arthroplastytoday.org/article/S2352-…

Amazing first podium for our excellent @BaharGolbon showing we can prevent 1 fracture if we operate on 24 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. Even President @rebecca_sippel and @F_ThurstonDrake seemed enthralled. @TheAAES #aaes2024 #uoftendosurg #uhnendosurg @aminmadaniMD

Congratulations to @dpinc3 for successfully completing his Continuing Appointment Review in the Department of Surgery at @UofT ! An incredibly productive first 3 years of practice. Looking forward to your achievements in the years ahead!

@jointdocShields @nyulangone Sometimes we love what we suffer for

Interesting paper out of @nyulangone showing higher physiological stress / strain in DAA over poster approach hips. Not at all what I would expect! Thoughts #orthotwitter

Deeply concerned by the inadequate response to the targeting of Israeli civilians by Hamas - a disturbing trend in the global left's political culture. On the statement signed by tens of Israel-based academics & activists committed to peace & human rights: bit.ly/Isr1023

Like every nation in the world, Israel has a right and a duty to respond to these vicious attacks. I just got off the phone with Prime Minister Netanyahu, and I told him: If the United States experienced what Israel experienced, our response would be swift, decisive, and overwhelming. Terrorists purposefully target and kill civilians. We uphold the laws of war.

@JArthroplasty Glad to see data supporting what those of us fortunate to have access to this technology have observed. Automated impaction still requires technique to learn and execute i.e. when you give the fellow ‘the gun’: twitter.com/clipsthatgohar… #orthotwitter

Are you using automated impaction for #THA? This study showed better femur alignment, canal fill, and shorter OR times without the increased risk of ppfx. arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

Washing surgery wounds is necessary, but we still don’t know the most effective method. @PaulKaranicolas is evaluating the best practice for keeping surgical wounds clean and avoiding infection. Learn about the #ClinicalTrial: cihr-irsc.gc.ca/e/53357.html?f… @Sunnybrook @UofTSurgery

Great to see TRAC in @TorontoStar. Performed 4 anterior THA, 1 posterior THA, 2 TKA, 1 UKA this past weekend that would not have been done without the program. Proud to be part of this incredible team. @injurydr @RuTaggar @CdnOrthoAssoc @AAHKS thestar.com/news/gta/2023/…

As of April 1st, 2023 Sunnybrook’s Holland Centre & Michael Garron Hospital launched the Toronto Regional Arthroplasty Collaborative (TRAC) to help reduce wait times for hip and knee joint replacement surgery (or arthroplasty) in Ontario. Read more: sunnybrook.ca/content/?page=…

Watching a BBC series on surgery, and all the orthopaedic surgeons are like “actually it’s a very sophisticated specialism, of profound delicacy and complexity” and then there’s this guy:

Incredible conversation with 2 hip legends @SurgeryLegends

We’r launching orthoCAST- if you’re an #orthotwitter or #MedStudentTwitter - this is Netflix for orthopaedics. We’ve converted the syllabus into documentary videos for you. educast.org @generalorthomd @OrthopodReg @jointdocShields @NaanDerthaal @_NancyMD @kashakhtar

Thousands in Kamloops, Kelowna still waiting for postponed orthopaedic surgeries infotel.ca/newsitem/thous… @adriandix @Doctor_Dielwart

Ontario to increase the number of medical school spots as part of push to train more doctors cp24.com/news/ontario-t… via @cp24 This is all well and good, but it will take YEARS to ease the backlog without providing funding for hospitals NOW. We have graduating surgeons ready!
