A powerful and sobering presentation by @LucyLNam, our national data reveal a shocking reality that women with Turner Syndrome undergoing aortic surgery in the U.S. face disproportionately high morbidity and mortality. This is a call to action that cannot be ignored. @TurnerSyndSoc@AATSHQ@STS_CTsurgery@mghachd@AortaEd@MGHHeartHealth

My book is out!
After years working with Wolters Kluwer, I’ve published my first book using visual aid to enhance patient communication before procedures.
As a surgical resident, am grateful for the opportunity to share this resource to others.

Great presentation by our superstar cardiac surgery resident @LucyLNam at #AorticForum on “Does circulatory arrest temperature impact postoperative coagulopathy after aortic hemiarch replacement?”
Check out our study published today on the "Prevalence and Clinical Impact of Patient-Prosthesis Mismatch in Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement". This remains a HUGE problem after both SAVR and TAVR. @LucyLNam@MGHHeartHealth@mghctsurgery

Congratulations to @lucylnam, another incoming 4+3 CT resident, on her oral presentation re DCD donor age, and on winning the CT resident case report competition demonstrating removal of an intracardiac paraganglioma #AATS2025@JordanBloomMD@AsishanaOsho
Awesome afternoon hanging out with @socraticainfo at Waterloo, and especially speaking with @nikhilro_ from @Vapi_AI. It’s amazing to see all the founders here. Also — a behind the scenes pic of the insane arena event they are putting together tonight. Excited!
First time ever for me to publish two papers on the same day regarding topics I am highly passionate about. Check out our paper on avoiding palliative prosthetic, aortic valve replacement in patients with aortic regurgitation. #RepairorRoss@LucyLNam@AortaEd@mghachd@MGHHeartHealth
