Making a discovery that changes how we practice is one of the most exciting things about the fields of medicine and surgery. In this episode, join endocrine surgeons Drs. Barb Miller, John Phay, Priya Dedhia, and Surgical Oncology Fellow Dr. Samantha Ruff from The Ohio State University. Hear Dr. Phay tell the story of how parathyroid autofluorescence was discovered and the work that has gone on since that day. The group discusses several articles focusing on intraoperative adjuncts used to identify parathyroid tissue during thyroid and parathyroid surgery.  Hosts: Barbra S. Miller, MD (Moderator), Clinical Professor of Surgery, John Phay, MD, Clinical Professor of Surgery, Priya H. Dedhia, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor of Surgery, Samantha Ruff, MD, Surgical Oncology Fellow, Division of Surgical Oncology, Department of Surgery, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Columbus, Ohio. Twitter handles:  Barbra Miller - @OSUEndosurgBSM John Phay – @JohnPhayMD Priya Dedhia – @priyaknows  Samantha Ruff - @SamRuff_MD Learning objectives:  1) Understand the background of the discovery of parathyroid autofluorescence 2) Describe various intraoperative adjuncts utilized to identify parathyroid tissue 3) Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of using autofluorescence versus indocyanine green for identification of parathyroid tissue   4) Recognize the impact of use of intraoperative imaging adjuncts on postoperative hypocalcemia (short and long-term) 5) Understand the general safety issues for the parathyroid imaging techniques discussed References: 1.

What is the best surgical treatment for a vasculopathy with critical limb threatening ischemia? In this episode of Behind the Knife the vascular surgery subspecialty team discusses two pivotal trials (BEST-CLI and BASIL-2) and how the findings of these trials can help answer this question. In this episode, we will discuss the age old question: open bypass versus best endovascular treatment.  Hosts:  Dr. Bobby Beaulieu is an Assistant Professor of Vascular Surgery at the University of Michigan Dr. Frank Davis is an Assistant Professor of Vascular Surgery at the University of Michigan Dr. David Schechtman is a Vascular Surgery Fellow at the University of Michigan Dr. Drew Braet is a PGY-4 Integrated Vascular Surgery Resident at the University of Michigan Learning Objectives Review the definition, prevalence, and prognosis of critical limb threatening ischemia Review basic treatment options for patients with critical limb threatening ischemia Understand the methodology, findings, limitations, and clinical applications of the BEST-CLI trial Understand the methodology, findings, limitations, and clinical applications of the BASIL-2 trial Compare open bypass and best endovascular therapy for patients with critical limb threatening ischemia References Farber A, Menard MT, Conte MS, Kaufman JA, Powell RJ, Choudhry NK, Hamza TH, Assmann SF, Creager MA, Cziraky MJ, Dake MD, Jaff MR, Reid D, Siami FS, Sopko G, White CJ, van Over M, Strong MB, Villarreal MF, McKean M, Azene E, Azarbal A, Barleben A, Chew DK, Clavijo LC, Douville Y, Findeiss L, Garg N, Gasper W, Giles KA, Goodney PP, Hawkins BM, Herman CR, Kalish JA, Koopmann MC, Laskowski IA, Mena-Hurtado C, Motaganahalli R, Rowe VL, Schanzer A, Schneider PA, Siracuse JJ, Venermo M, Rosenfield K; BEST-CLI Investigators.
