Best Abstract Presentation. SAGES 2026.
Delivered by our chief resident, Dr. Kelly Champlin - calm under pressure, sharp in the data, and unshaken in Q&A.
The message landed: surgery-first isn’t just a procedure - it’s a clinical philosophy.
Proud is an understatement.

Huge thank you to Dr Rasmussen, our guest for the annual Dewall lectureship. His talk included stories from his experiences on deployment and in academic military surgery.
Adopt the military mentality of “no one left behind” whether you’re on the battlefield or in the OR

Thanks, Dr. Dean Anselmo, our guest speaker for the annual Dr. Bernie Lectureship 🎤
He reviewed vascular anomalies and held a special session for residents on how to be successful in academic surgery/bee keeping! 🐝 Don't tell him our amphitheater isn't names after him 🤣

Many residents, when asked what they’re going to do after finishing, answer by saying ‘just’ general surgery.
No one ever says ‘just’ pediatric or ‘just’ vascular surgery.
General surgery seems to have an identity issue and it either needs to be legitimized or to disappear.

Timing of CDH repair in infants requiring ECLS 🫀🫁 may not be “one size fits all.” Our study from @MottChildren shows that this phenotypically complex population may benefit from a more individualized, hybrid approach 🎯

I1. Air knot at the skin to make it easy to cut the stitch
2. Once around the tube for each strand
3. Tie right around tube so it dimples.
When drains fall out it’s usually because the stitch breaks when pt gets oob
