How is this possible at (=100)?? How can you stretch one finger back that far and keep 3,4,5 up to play the A-flat, G, F?

92 y/o F with right iliofemoral DVT. Hx multiple cardiac caths via right femoral access. After thrombectomy with #inari ClotTriever a severe stenosis of the RCFV was treated with #medtronic Abre stents. Possibly a long-term complication of cardiac caths? #svs #dvt #vte #vascular

When you put 3 filters in…expect clot to follow. 75 y/o male with IVC thrombosis. #inari

55 y/o male with bilateral post-thrombotic syndrome… did not expect him to require as extensive of a reconstruction as he did!

[Joe Liechty @joeliechty]

71 y/o M with acute PE. Troponin increased five-fold over a few hours so taken for urgent thrombectomy. #Inari #VascularSurgery

@Public_Citizen How much health care? A Band-Aid and an aspirin? Or a month in the ICU on full support when all providers involved recognize the futility of the situation?

@LumsdenHMDHVC @VascularNews @VascularSVS @ISEVSonline Considering your growing disillusion with perc repairs of endoleaks are you still offering coils etc., if the seal zones look ok and you think it’s a type 2? And do you need to see lumbar arteries as a source on CTA before you would open someone?

[Joe Liechty @joeliechty]

@EuroInterventio This should be published in the Journal of Short-Term Vascular Solutions.

@AmCollSurgeons @JFreischlag @NEJM What if one day they make grafts with branches to treat aneurysms involving the visceral vessels too??

@olop19 @RKTvascular @VascSurgMD @BradleyThomas @jmills1955 @gloviczki @RadcliffeVascu1 @GustavoOderich @BruceTjadenMD @DanHan @drseanlyden That looks like a really low entry point into the artery. Is it really common carotid or is it a subclavian access? If CCA, cut down and direct repair.
