Maybe consider SEQUENTIAL HEART/KIDNEYS? The risk of mortality and graft failure from using extended donors in simultaneous heart-kidney transplant is greater than in isolated heart transplants. @MaxamillionShin @Iyengaramit @MarkHelmersMD

First #TricValve (transcatheter bicaval valves system) implantation in the 🇺🇸 performed by Dr. @tavrkapadia Sir and my brother, Dr. Rishi Puri, both at @ClevelandClinic—congratulations! Recalcitrant right-sided heart failure due to severe tricuspid regurgitation is an unmet need.

GIANT ASCENDING AORTIC ANEURYSM-
Although i have done quite a few Bentall surgeries before, this one deserves special mention.
This was the biggest ascending aortic aneurysm I’ve encountered (12.75 cm) The patient was unable to lie down since weeks because of compression

A recorded press briefing from #STS2022 just dropped. @iyengaramit from @pennsurgery discusses how neighborhood socioeconomic status may impact patient outcomes after heart surgery. @sloaneguy also shares his thoughts on the “very revealing” data. bit.ly/3rbXaeY
