Every time I am fixing a pseudoaneurysm or AVF caused by someone gaining femoral access without ultrasound, a little piece inside of me dies. It’s like me riding no handed on my bike through a crowd: sure, I probably could pull it off, but it’s 2020, bikes come w/ handlebars now.

When the ECMO team on standby in the room GASP with the first clot haul, vitals return to normal 5 min later, and the CT surgeon says “looks like you don’t need me anymore” you know you’re doing something right. This right heart was on the brink of failure. Another life saved!

Hot take: there are no uncrossable venous occlusions. Don’t condemn patients to a lifetime of femoral tunneled catheters or debilitating face and arm swelling without referring first to centers with appropriate equipment and experience to get these vessels open. #irad @LLUHealth

Common retort: need to know how to do this in emergency situations like codes! Disagree. Like a glidescope, an ultrasound unit is a must-locate piece of equipment for a code and you are going to get the a line or CVC in much more efficiently with US, especially with BP of 0.

Yesterday began my 2(ish) year journey to get my mouth back to normal. Braces to straighten the teeth out, orthognathic surgery in 8-12 months to re-break and rotate left mandible back into place, then bone grafts (prob 2-3 of those), then implants. Sigh. One day at a time.

Even worse when the pseudoaneurysm was caused by trying to gain femoral VEIN access without ultrasound - the equivalent of putting on a blindfold and having your friend stand next to a dartboard and yell in your direction so you know approximately where the bullseye is.

Previous PV recan, portomesenteric thrombectomy with AngioJet and TIPS. SMV rethrombosed after missing anticoagulation… this time we went with @InariMedical T16 thru the TIPS. AngioJet has its uses, but you need aspiration +/- mechanical to get this kind of chronic material out.

Airing of Grievances: an overnight “heads up” page to IR (and probably many surgeons) for normal on call procedures (like “possible TIPS”) is NOT NECESSARY. It robs us of sleep so that if we do come in, we are less effective. It won’t make us come in any sooner. Please, stop.

@keithppereira @AmirOlfat @SimaBanerjeeMD @IRKhalsa @pparikhxr @olgabrook @paragpatel_IR @JustinShafaMD @savedbyrad @IRguru I think we need a “simulated DR experience” for students to try it out for themselves. Less observational, more problem solving / puzzle-like. I think if more students tried DR rather than watched it, they would enjoy more than they expect. I’m 100% IR but still like imaging.

@jfunkmd @so_uro @SocietyofBPD Unethical like vascular surgeons and cardiologists ordering and then interpreting the same Duplex or echo they ordered in an imaging lab they own and then performing an intervention on the patient based on the imaging? Many specialties do this. You notice because it affects you.

Medical device industry: we haven’t forgotten about you. We are busy with other stuff, or deliberately ramping down our procedures that use your products to minimize exposure risk to us and our patients. Stop. Hassling. Us. #ThereISaidIt #StillLoveYou #EmailOverload.

My favorite part of @ISETNews each year is meeting with the incoming @MiamiVasc fellows to give them tips to survive their upcoming year (and freak them out a bit 😂). Not pictured: our own Loma Linda resident David Wilding who couldn’t make it to the meeting. Bright future!

Chronic supra-filter thrombosis extending through the popliteals. Filter sequestration, iliocaval stent reconstruction, fempop recanalization into the stents and PTA. One of the hardest of these cases I’ve done because inflow was so difficult to get! @LLUMedCenter @SIRRFS #IRad

Happy to say I turned a Twitter friend @ahmedkayssi into a real friend today. I hope to do the same with a few more people I’ve sparred with electronically before the end of this meeting! @AMPSymposium @CLI_Global #AMPCLI2019 @TimYatesMD @kmadass @SDhandMD @PenVascular

I spotted a unicorn recently - a focal short segment occlusion in the fempop segment! Can’t remember last time I had a case like this. True lumen recan with vert catheter and Bentson wire (no Newton LLT available), then DCB. #nothingleftbehind @Watts_IR @keithppereira @SDhandMD

M&M sessions are always my favorite at EVERY conference. @CharlesBurkeMD hits the nail on the head: “the second victim in a horrendous complication is the physician!” Understanding the effect it has on those in the room prevents one complication leading to more. @theairsymposium

@orthofacts You think you have it rough? Try IR. Since we have radiology in the name people think they can just click a button on Epic and get a procedure.

All these amazing cases at Extreme IR but the most impressive thing I’ve seen yet is that there are BATHROOMS in the actual exhibit hall!. #IRad.#SIR19ATX.#TwittIR.#IAmIR.#PatientCentered.

I am a fan of the new MOC process. The OLA website is polished, questions seem relevant, and we get a weekly reminder email to do the questions. I give a solid two 👍🏼 to @ABR_Radiology on this one. @SIRspecialists @SIR_ECS @SIRRFS @IRDocFuji @LLUHealth @LLUMedCenter.

Severe abdominal pain p/w exploded filter - struts everywhere - two in bowel, one in the aorta, two completely extravascular. Forceps to the rescue! Aortogram/cavogram both fine afterward. @johnnysuh @JonnyMoriarty @CHICKVIR @medravi @trerotolas #irad #surgerynottheanswer

First TCAR I’ve seen at an ISET Live Case. Fantastic technique from the experts at @WeillCornellb. Looks like our #iset2020 #TCAR poster from Millie Liao, myself and several vascular surgeons @LLUHealth @LLUMedCenter was a timely one! @SIRRFS @ISETNews @MiamiVascularSp
