🧵regarding the Gigli saw:
A simple but effective tool for cutting bone. As usual, we'll go over its design, how to use it, and why such a basic device still exists in the surgical toolbox in 2026.
We'll also cover its history and the tragic fate of Leonardo Gigli.

Glad to be a part of another quality project led by @GWSurgery @susan_kartiko #Trauma #TraumaSurg #SurgTwitter
EAST conditionally recommends screening to identify patients at risk of PTSD during their initial hospitalization and strongly recommend the use of cognitive behavioral therapy for mitigation of PTSD development.

It's 4:00 AM and a patient comes in with a stab wound to the heart.
Repair it by 4:02 and the patient will walk out in a few days.
Wait until 4:05, and he'll be wheeled out in a bag.

(1/x) Andromeda-Shock 2 was just published in JAMA and is the most important septic shock trial in the past DECADE.
They found that phenotyped resuscitation improves the composite outcome of mortality, vital support, and hospital LOS.
Here's how you can apply this protocol to your practice 👇

One of our favorite annual lectures is the Shorb Lecture, given by a GW Surgery alumnus, and this was no exception. Thank you Dr. Carrie Valdez @carrievaldezmd for a truly inspiring grand rounds on physician burn out, and equally as important, recovery 👏🏻💪🏻. #MedEd #wellness

Injury to BIG BLUE?! 🔵😨 First, take a deep breath🫁
Then, perform a R ➡️ L medial visceral rotation, use sponge sticks to compress the IVC against the spine, & reassess the situation. Get access, blood 🩸, & help 🆘!
To repair, "define the edges" (as they say in TOP KNIFE) & place a clamp or start suturing. You can try multiple Allis clamps placed in sequence along the laceration, removing clamps as you sew. Or, a Satinsky clamp👇🏼
If the patient is in extremis, the infrarenal IVC can be ligated with reasonable outcomes.
