🎥 Visuals matter! Learn how to curate high-quality vascular images & videos to elevate your teaching, peer reviews, and research communication. Sharper visuals = stronger impact. 📊✨ 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #MedEd #VascularSurgery #Imaging
🚧 When bypass fails, DETOUR delivers. Two successful cases using the DETOUR system for percutaneous arterial bypass in patients with popliteal artery occlusions, offering an option before tibial bypass. @GeorgesJreij @KNagarshethMD 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #PAD #DETOUR
⚠️ Rare but deadly. Enteric fistula after ilio-mesenteric bypass for mesenteric ischemia is a high-stakes complication. This case showcases successful multiD salvage with explant, iliac transposition & bowel rsxn. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #MesentericIschemia #EntericFistula
🦶💡 Hope for the no-option foot. This case series shows how flow-through free flaps with distal foot arterialization salvaged ischemic limbs in CLTI patients lacking pedal targets—offering durable perfusion without DVA complications. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #CLTI #LimbSalvage
🧲📸 Imaging without compromise. Ferumoxytol-enhanced MRA enabled high-quality EVAR surveillance to detect sac expansion without iodinated or gadolinium contrast. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #EVAR #Ferumoxytol #MRA #RenalImpairment #EndoleakDetection
🦵🔍 A post-sclerotherapy surprise. 3.5 years after treatment, an 82-year-old developed a leg mass thought to be aneurysm or malignancy. Surgical excision showed a benign reactive lesion. Always consider prior interventions. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #Sclerotherapy #veins
🏃♂️🔥 Hidden in endurance. Bilateral external iliac artery endofibrosis caused exertional claudication in an ultramarathoner. Delayed diagnosis and treated with bilateral GSV patches. Don’t miss this in athletes! 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #IliacEndofibrosis #AthleteHealth
🧬💥 Not your typical PE. This case highlights successful endovascular removal of a large iliocaval fat embolus after hip surgery—expanding options for rare, high-risk emboli. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #FatEmbolism #MechanicalThrombectomy
🧊🚫 No phantom pain here. A 58-year-old underwent BKA with cryo nerve block to key lower limb nerves—resulting in zero phantom limb pain at 1 year. Promising option for post-amputation pain prevention! 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #PhantomLimbPain #Cryoablation #Amputation
🧒🔪 Pediatric trauma, endovascular repair. A 13-year-old with a descending thoracic aortic injury from a stab wound was successfully treated with TEVAR using an iliac limb stent—life-saving hybrid approach. Thoughts? 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #PediatricTrauma #TEVAR
🦿 Groin infection meets innovation. After femoral artery infection post-radiation, this case shows how lateral femoral bypass + rectus flap reconstruction achieved infection control and limb salvage. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #LimbSalvage #RadiationComplications
💡 Endoleak management, upgraded. This case series shows how contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) provides real-time, intraoperative guidance for endoleak detection & treatment—especially valuable in renal disease. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #AortaEd #Endoleak #CEUS
🩺 Aortic dissection meets maternal care. This case highlights a young woman with pregnancy-associated dissection treated with staged open & endo repair—emphasizing the need to consider familial aortopathies in young patients. @VascSurgMD 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #AortaEd
🚧 When stents fail, innovate. This case shows how an endovenous bypass around an occluded, undersized Wallstent restored flow and QoL in chronic iliofemoral venous disease—using a creative Wallstent-Z stent combo. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #VenousStenting #EndovenousBypass
🤖💡 Robotics to the rescue! Post-op chylothorax after open TAAA repair was successfully treated with robotic-assisted thoracic duct ligation using indocyanine green. A minimally invasive solution for a tough complication! 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #Chylothorax #RoboticSurgery
⚡ High-stakes extraction save! Laser-assisted TLE led to an IMA injury—salvaged endovascularly. This case highlights the need for multidisciplinary teams & subspecialty backup in complex lead removals. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #LeadExtraction #TechniqueTuesday
🩻 STABILISE your dissection strategy! This paper breaks down the STABILISE technique for type B aortic dissection—how it works, when to use it, and why it’s redefining aortic remodeling. A must-read for aortic teams. 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #AortaEd #STABILISE #TEVAR

🏐 From misdiagnosis to comeback! A 21-year-old collegiate volleyball player with arterial TOS & CLTI due to bilateral cervical ribs is treated with staged surgery—restoring perfusion and athletic career. 👇 👉 jvscit.org/article/S2468-… #TOS #CLTI #AthleteCare #MedTwitter
