My friend and colleague Zane Gallinger is one of the finest gastroenterologists in Toronto.

He has bailed me out of tough situations.

He is a valued and trusted educator.

He transformed our rotation at Sinai Health into gold.

I love the dude so much.

⁦ #ECCO2024 very nice presentation of real world #MSC in #crohnsfistula showing 70-80%healing…how so different from ADMIRE2…still so much promise clearly with real world evidence ⁦Phillip Fleshner MD⁩ ⁦Antonino Spinelli⁩ ⁦Jay Warusavitarne⁩ ⁦Phil Tozer⁩

Supreme CD trial categorized Rutgeerts i2a as endoscopic recurrence which biases the results in favour of (handsewn) Kono S. Staple line ulcers are part of normal healing in SS stapled anastomoses and should therefore not be considered as endoscopic recurrence in such trials!

Likely not, but #Meerkat will tell us!

#ECCO24
Dr Zuzana Sercova with results of ADMIRE CD using MSCs in Perianal fistula
Didn’t meet both primary or secondary end points
