The new SVIN guidelines on Endovascular Thrombectomy (EVT) for Distal & Medium Vessel Occlusions (DMVO) are out! 🧠🩺 While LVOs have clear protocols, treating DMVOs requires precise patient selection based on functional deficits and advanced imaging. Know when to intervene and when to hold off. Read the full guidelines to optimize your acute stroke care! #StrokeCare#NeuroTwitter#EVT#Neurology#SVIN#MedEd
as vezes eu cometo burrices odontológicas e vou falar pra vocês não cometerem também: ao subir margem da distal de qualquer dente que não seja um 7 tenha certeza que o vizinho não mesializou.

Key clues:
✅ Adolescent patient
✅ Progressive night pain
✅ Distal femoral metaphyseal lesion
✅ Swelling without fever
✅ Aggressive bone-forming tumor on X-ray
💡 Remember:
“Around the knee teenager night pain = think Osteosarcoma until proven otherwise.”
🫁 Bonus: The most common site of metastasis is the lungs.

oh! "below" the wrist & elbow -- I meant "proximal to"
"below" is imprecise... like it's literally "below" vertically in that specific pose, but not "below" as in "distal"
Good try, Megacolon describes what we see, but the real diagnosis is more specific - Hirschsprung disease. The key problem is the absence of ganglion cells in the distal bowel, which causes a functional obstruction and leads to proximal dilatation.
Distal biceps tendon tear-
Ultrasound can demonstrate tendon discontinuity, retraction, and associated hematoma. MRI is the imaging modality of choice. Assessment of the degree of tendon retraction is important for surgical planning.

4/ 95% of bile acids undergo enterohepatic recycling by being taken back up from the distal ileum. With help from @IBD_FloMD@CleClinicMD we asked if HSD3B1 is expressed in the gut. Aha moment! HSD3B1 is co-expressed in the same enterocytes as the bile acid transporter SLC10A2!👇
بعد عمليتين ORIF - distal femur fracture و Partial Meniscectomy
جيت العملية التالته و ال كنت متشوق ليها فشخ ( TKA )

Bird-beak sign on barium swallow — Achalasia cardia. The distal esophagus shows smooth tapering due to failure of LES relaxation and loss of esophageal peristalsis. 🩺🎯
to be fair in anatomy classes when describing idk a phalanx of it we could’ve used phalanx distalis digiti V manus which means distal phalanx of the fifth digit (the pinky finger) of the hand so i just assumed its a normal finger
