Much to learn about the host inflammatory state and cancer treatment & outcomes - then how to target this for better outcomes. We report pre-operative inflammation predicts survival in #lungcancer #LCSM @MFT_Research @BTOGORG @BTSrespiratory @SCTSUK sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Do we have a problem with distal aortic failure after Acute Type A repair with a hemi arch ? Yes - we sure do! #MikolajBerezowski presented our 15yr outcome data in over 500 patients. 50% of patients will have aortic death, reintervention or significant aortic dilation at 15 years. Close monitoring through follow-up imaging and potentially more extensive surgery on the arch at the initial procedure are essential to optimize survival. #aats2024 @AATSHQ #aortaed @BavariaMd @ChrisMalaisrie @KendraGrubb

This week our cardiothoracic team had the opportunity to work alongside world-renowned cardiac surgeon, Dr Tirone E. David. He pioneered the Aortic Valve Sparing Root replacement (known as David procedure) and is working with us to make the surgery accessible to our patients.

Our Centre of Excellence in Aortic Disease carries out some of 🇨🇦’s most complex aortic surgeries, and leads the way in #aorticdisease research. “We’d like to get at the heart of why certain aortas fail and how to predict that,” says @jenn_cy_chung 🔗bit.ly/3qqIWJt
