The Beat with Joel Dunning Ep. 11

27 minutes

In this episode of CTSNet’s flagship podcast, editor in chief Joel Dunning is joined by new senior editor of congenital content, Dr. Sameh Said. Together, they run through the latest, most popular content on ctsnet.org—the largest online community of CT surgeons and source of CT surgery information—and breaking cardiothoracic surgery news and research from around the world.

After a short introduction, Joel and Sameh begin their discussion on outcomes of pulmonary atresia in neonates, surgical outcomes for type A thoracic aorta dissection, and disparities in access to thoracic surgeons for esophagectomy.

They also talk about a new method for VSD closure without ventriculotomy, a double valve replacement from Medtronic, and an anomalous origin of the coronary artery repair from Dr. Said himself. After discussing upcoming events in the CT surgery world, they close with a shoutout to Patrick Myers.
