Excited for an invigorating day of resident research talks, hosted by @mtlawton ! #Vanderbilt #Neurosurgery #GeorgeAllen
An absolute pleasure to have @mtlawton and #Dr. T here to discuss all things #cavernoma #cartography #connectomunculus #schwannoma? #brain #tumor
PGY4 and future vascular neurosurgeon, @LohitVelagapudi giving a fantastic talk on radiographic predictors of revascularization after EDAS for #moyamoya disease. @VanderbiltCV
Phenomenal talk by future pediatric/vascular neurosurgeon @gkouts8 on genomic factors underlying revascularization in #moyamoya disease @VanderbiltCV
Looking forward to a great live case this morning - the first carotid stent procedure performed in an ambulatory setting. Be a part of history and witness the future of neuroendovascular care! @UB_Neurosurgery @EladLevyMD @CNS_Update @SiemensHealth @Medtronic

Subdural hematomas often represent sequelae of arteriovenous fistulae contained within meningeal vessels, hence the effectiveness of MMA embolization, as shown in this Onyx embolization of a parietal branch #neuroendovascular #neuroanatomy #cerebrovascular #neurosurgery

Delighted to welcome @SalehLamin to Buffalo to help proctor the first @Medtronic Artisse endosaccular aneurysm cases at the Gates Vascular Institute (@KaleidaHealth)

#Cowboys need #lassos:
After post-deployment rotation of a WEB, the inferior M2 branch was occluded.
1. Flow matters- give #Integrilin
2. 5F catheter parked at aneurysms neck
3. Snare in an micro-catheter
4. Lasso the WEB around the detachment zone and extract

Congrats to @NeurosurgUCSF PGY1 @robcosorio for his @aans plenary talk describing work completed by him and his coresident @josephoh0517 in my lab defining PitNET tumors st the single cell level, challenging the current classification scheme. #AANS2025

The perfect jump shot is built in the gym, when you're tired and no one is watching.
Love to see @PittNeurosurg residents putting in microanastomosis reps in the lab so they're ready to shine in the OR.
Special thanks to @DrJosephMaroon for donating the instrument sets!

Tortuous carotid anatomy can be controlled using the the combination of #balloon anchor ⚓️ and #balloon sail techniques⛵️. #HEAVYMETAL
Additionally PROXIMAL #embolic protection is used when distal landing zones are challenging. #airbag

NEW CASE!
7F Dude catheter navigates severely tortuous cervical vertebral anatomy with excellent stability to deliver a flow diverter in distal basilar artery.

Complex #aneurysms require elegant solutions. Here we show a stent-in-stent construct to protect the PCA and SCA.
We use our “roller coaster” technique to navigate #inflow—>outflow of the SCA.
Nuanced understanding of stent characteristics and advanced techniques are needed.

Exciting results from our Vanderbilt Sports Concussion lab - individual sport athletes have more emotional symptoms post-concussion compared to team sport athletes @VUMC_Concussion @VUMC_Neurosurg - youtu.be/YgFg-sZzafU?si=dyNv… via @YouTube
