Sometimes a wound needs our help to heal. Be it a celebrated college football coach or a beloved blue-collar neighbor, options exist to prevent unnecessary amputation.

Here’s one for #RadRes. 80 yo presents with syncope, shock. CT shows hemoperitoneum and splenic artery rupture. No aneurysm on prior CT. No trauma prior, no signs of infection.
#justglueit does the trick!
Classic presentation. Diagnosis?

The single worst insurance scam is @UHC hence why so many large organizations are dropping them! The city of #Raleigh is doing it en mass. More to come as I hear many other large platforms are doing the same. They just rip off their subscribers and at the same time health care workers for large bonuses to their execs

Oh @UHC Disappointed but not surprised.
Reviewing a denial because Med Dir says ‘unclear what final stenosis was’ -I actually give a #. Oh, and case is from 9/22. I’m like 🤷🏼♀️.
Assuming holding payment is the plan all along.
What if we all drop United? Like a massive walk out.

Optease #filterout with iliocaval reconstruction. Patient refused to be admitted because they felt so well afterwards. We can do amazing things while having fun! @SIRspecialists @SIR_ECS

That feeling when your friendly podiatrist said he had 600 mL blood loss when working on your DVA patient 🩸 👍🏽 @SIRspecialists @SIR_ECS @CLIfighters

The trainees identified 53 clinically traumatic findings at the #trauma #CTscanner that were confirmed by final #RadiologyReports at a concordance rate of 85%. #TraumaSurgery @suzchongmd @ERadSociety ow.ly/fHTW50MqAlQ

Patient non-ambulatory because of pain from cancer. Killed the tumor with heat, provided support with rods, and backed up the cement truck. Patient back to walking with minimal pain.

Thrombectomy and superior vena cava (SVC) reconstruction have become major treatment options for malignant SVC syndromes in conjunction with, or as an alternative to, external beam radiotherapy or systemic therapy. @UWRadiology @UofWa_IR @davidsshin @mabadsantos @SIRRFS

My best #DVA yet! Learning along. Venous pedal loop crossing crucial for success. Vein distention with contrast helps. Pull back injection helps with stent landing. Let the healing begin. Thx @ElmasriFakhir for assist! @SIRspecialists @SIRRFS #medtwitter @pairsmedia @VascularSVS

Partner’s case. Impressive and unlucky arterial injury during PCN. Sometimes these easy 5 minute procedures just bite you in the rear! It was a good calyceal access despite what it looks like on this single plane angio…@SIRspecialists

Anyone think since @VascularSVS 2022 is in Boston at the same time, we should arrange a Westside Story style gang battle scene at #SIRBOS22 #SIR2022 @SIRspecialists??

Rest pain, prior pop to distal PT bypass but could not keep flow d/t small plantars. No visible tibial origins. Used bypass to cross pedal loop and retro recan native AT. Love to see the metatarsals at the end!

Called for CFA thrombosis. Vascular surgery colleague out with COVID and no hospital coverage. Thought I’d give it a shot. Used CAT12 with Ensnare to release and aspirate this adherent thrombus and cleared it. Wish I had sent to path/micro though

Here’s a video of the technique in action. Used Preclose technique as well, I believe it’s essential all IRs have this in their back pocket!

Referral for necrotic toes. Refused to go to podiatrist. US shows SFA occlusion and “patent runoff”. I suspect otherwise based on ABI. Had to kiss stents to tibials for outflow. Anyone would do anything different? Surgeon declined bypass. Most important image is the last one!

I should say since I did this in the hospital, I did NOT have Auryon, which would have been my first choice plus balloon for the tibials…
