How to manage GI ischemia in acute type A dissection? The Penn approach: fix the proximal Aorta first and be aggressive about treating ongoing distal malperfusion. Great presentation by our resident Nick Goel at the #AATS Aortic Symposium today! #AORTAED #PENNAORTA Joe Bavaria, MD

Can we get everyone to follow this approach ? #AortaEd. Nimesh Desai MD PhD any reasons to fix SMA first prior to proximal repair?

.John J. Kelly, MD PennSurgery et al published an article on the deployment of a novel hybrid stent for open repair of acute DeBakey type I aortic dissection with malperfusion. Learn more about their use of the AMDS Hybrid Prosthesis in #JTCVS Techniques: doi.org/10.1016/j.xjtc…

A nice approach to severe MAC cases using the CUSA. Focal application of the CUSA allows you to debride as little of the annulus as possible. Respect the MAC! @MauerBiscotti Michael Catalano, MD AATS Journals AATS PennSurgery Penn Cardiology optechtcs.com/article/S1522-…

For Type A dissections with gut ischemia, the traditional approach may still be the best approach…great work here from the whole Penn team! Nimesh Desai MD PhD Joe Bavaria, MD John J. Kelly, MD Selim Mosbahi, MD AATS Journals PennSurgery Penn Cardiology jtcvs.org/article/S0022-…

Important question for clinicians managing an aortic catastrophe...when is emergent laparotomy futile? Great project from the Penn Aorta team! Nimesh Desai MD PhD John J.

Strong Penn presence at #EACTS2024 in Lisbon today. We are slowly unraveling the mysteries of aortic dissection from why it happens to the most advanced ways to treat it. We are so proud of our students and trainees! PennSurgery Penn Medicine #AortaEd EACTS Kendall Lawrence

Great to see the #pennaorta team on podiums around the world sharing our work. Here PennSurgery resident Madison Grasty, MD is International Aortic Summit in Aruba explaining our technique of open repair for an aneurysmal Kommerell’s Diverticulum with dysphagia in a right sided aortic arch

Great experience presenting at the STS-ASCVTS Aortic Summit this year! As always, huge thanks to the whole Penn team PennSurgery Nimesh Desai MD PhD The Society of Thoracic Surgeons #AortaEd

V-V ECMO after Type A? TEVAR in #marfan? Penn residents Allie Sperry, MD and Mike Catalano are presenting some controversial topics at The Society of Thoracic Surgeons EACTS LACES meeting in Buenos Aires! Great job team! PennSurgery #PENNAORTA #AortaEd Kendall Lawrence Chase Brown, MD, MS

#EditorsChoice In this article, Selim Mosbahi, MD, Nimesh Desai MD PhD, and coauthors conclude antegrade thoracic endovascular aortic repair may be beneficial for remodeling and reduces reintervention for malperfusion. Read more👇 doi.org/10.1016/j.atho…
