Xavier Berard Peter Rossi JVS-Cases Innovations and Techniques Jacob Schwartzman Adam W. Beck @EanasYassa I similarly use LHB or left fem-fem ECMO for open. I work very closely with CT surgery Hiroo Takayama at the Columbia Aortic Center. We do almost all cases together for better outcomes. We can both work individually however two minds and 4 hands are better. #JVSCITTweetChat
