Unquestionably the highlight moment of my career. Humbled, privileged and grateful to have led the @AANSNeuro this past year, and been able to find human commonality and seemingly touch a fiber in the heart and mind of the audience with my message. 🙏🙏🙏

Thank you @AllanLeviMD - rally enjoyed the meeting and it was quite an honor to moderate this inspirational and memorable panel discussion! Congrats to @jacquesmorcosmd for an amazing 2025 @AANSNeuro conference in #Boston.
What a great AANS meeting in Boston - everyone enjoyed 🙌 neurosurgery alumni session and honoring our former cochair - @jacquesmorcos for his presidential year. My wife @tererodrigueztv did an awesome job interviewing Bob Woodruff and Dr. Rocco Armando at the opening session.
Outstanding @AANSNeuro annual meeting in Boston under the leadership of the president @jacquesmorcosmd who gave a formidable presidential address, genuine and straight from the heart with “ Fayrouz” music in the background!
A beautiful evening in honor of @jacquesmorcosmd! The sold-out @NREFORG HYM Fund Dinner celebrated his AANS presidency and launched a lasting legacy to support research in cerebrovascular surgery, skull base and neuroanatomy. #AANS2025

#MorcosChallenge Pseudoaneurysms form when damage occurs to the arterial wall, resulting in a locally contained hematoma. They can form traumatically, iatrogenically, radiation-induced, or spontaneously. Compared to true aneurysms, pseudoaneurysms lack a true vessel wall @EvaWuMD
