Our rockstar Harvard Medical School student Robert Semco on palliative care in CT surgery: Despite rising consults for post-cardiotomy shock, only 25% of these patients receive palliative care nationally. Underutilized and overdue. Incredible and important work, Rob! Mentored by our own

What a meeting! We are grateful for the inspiring days, thanks to everyone who made it possible. See you in Chicago in 2026! #AATS2025

Weekend pick-me-up provided by Dr. Tolis. Thank you so much for coming out of your way for much needed therapy George Tolis !!

God's sense of timing will always confound ours. His grace rarely operates according to our schedule.

Full room! Fantastic lecture by George Tolis on post-infarct VSD. ✏️ cardiogenic shock suspecting VSD, make sure to *LISTEN*🩺 before PCI ✏️ IABP (afterload reduction, decrease shunt. NOT impella) ✏️ Surgery vs. ECMO(if in metabolic disarray) 👉surgery w exclusion technique

The only reason for an Impella combined with ECMO is lack of adequate pulsatility. In a post MI VSD, pulsatility is not an issue since the MI is never massive (patients have been walking around with it for a few days). A case report where you got away with it is not an indication

Left Bundle Branch Block (LBBB) & Septal Infarction – Understanding the ECG Clues 1/ What is LBBB? LBBB is a conduction abnormality where electrical impulses are delayed or blocked in the left bundle branch, leading to abnormal depolarization of the left ventricle.

Another rare case : middle mediastinal lipoma abutting carina, esophagus, left atrial dome, SVC and encasing LMCA, requiring transection of aorta and main PA and caudad rotation of the heart for excision. Suckers in pic.3 are in aorta and PA bifurcation.

Great, worth reading, thought process of CABG, conduit choice from a master CABG surgeon!

If the resurrection is true, then everything’s going to be alright.
