Endocrine Surgery emergencies are rare. However, they can be clinically significant and understanding how to navigate them as a surgeon in timely fashion is critical. Hosts:  Dr. Rebecca Sippel is an endowed professor of surgery and Division Chief of Endocrine Surgery at University of Wisconsin (UW) - Madison, and she is the most recent past president of the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons (AAES).  She is an internationally recognized leader in the field of endocrine surgery with over 250 publications. She was the principal investigator for a hallmark randomized controlled trial which studied the need for prophylactic central neck dissections in thyroid cancer.   Dr. Amanda Doubleday is a fellowship trained endocrine surgeon in private practice with an affiliation to UW Health. Her primary practice is with Waukesha Surgical Specialists in Waukesha WI. Her clinical interests are in robotic adrenalectomy, benign and malignant thyroid cancer and hyperparathyroidism. Dr. Simon Holoubek is a fellowship trained endocrine surgeon affiliated with UW Health. His primary practice is with UW Health with privileges at UW Madison and UW Northern Illinois. His clinical interests are aggressive variants of thyroid cancer, parathyroid autofluorescence, and nerve monitoring.  Learning Objectives: 1) Learn about thyroid storm in hyperthyroidism and treatment options. 2) Understand how to treat hypercalcemic crisis due to uncontrolled primary hyperparathyroidism. 3) Describe the modified surgical techniques required for thyroidectomy in patients with Graves’ disease to prevent recurrent laryngeal nerve traction injury. 4) Identify clinical and intraoperative indicators of parathyroid carcinoma and explain the necessity of en bloc resection to prevent parathyromatosis.

It’s 1:00 AM on a Saturday and a patient arrives with a gunshot wound and no distal pulses—who should hold the scalpel, Trauma or Vascular? In this episode of Big T Trauma, hosts Dr. Patrick Georgoff and Dr. Teddy Puzio are joined by vascular surgeon Dr. Brian Gilmore and dual-trained powerhouse Dr. Joe DuBose to debate this high-stakes turf war. We tackle the uncomfortable reality of declining vascular exposure in general surgery training and whether current "vascular expertise" standards are failing our patients. From the rise of endovascular technology to navigating institutional politics, our panel breaks down how to bridge the gap between specialties for better patient outcomes. This episode of Big T Trauma was sponsored by Teleflex, a global provider of medical devices. Learn more at teleflex.com and at the Teleflex Trauma and Emergency Medicine LinkedIn page.

Welcome back to our BTK/ASGBI Series! During this series, BTK fellow Agnes Premkumar and ASGBI hosts Jared Wohlgemut and Gita Lingam compare and contrast various aspects of surgery between the United States and the United Kingdom, debating who does what better.  We are happy to be continuing our AI discussion further with another episode. While last episode lay a foundation on discussing the unique differences in the role and regulation of AI in both these countries, now we delve into some of the clinical challenges. What does AI and the future of surgery look like in underserved locations such as the battlefield or the rural communities. What does this mean for our future as surgeons…will we be replaced? And how should we address the integration of AI within our practices?  We are thrilled to have our trio of experts discussing this further. Dr. Nelson is a surgical oncologist working at the Brook Army Medical Center in San Antonio, he's very interested in expanding the role of AI within surgical education and beyond. Dr. Larson is a general surgery resident at the Mayo Clinic. She's currently in her research time and finishing up her master's degree in AI and studying the role of machine learning within surgical practice. Dr. Mukherjee is a surgeon scientist alongside an Honorary Consultant General & Major Trauma Surgeon in Liverpool, England. His current research bridges academia with industry and is aimed at transforming the treatment of critical illness through the development of next-generation therapies for pancreatitis-induced acute lung injury through the utilisation of cutting-edge AI driven drug discovery approaches.  Take a listen and let us know what you think!  References: Johns’ Hopkins Ex-Vivo Cholecystectomy by a Robot https://hub.jhu.edu/2025/07/09/robot-performs-first-realistic-surgery-without-human-help/ Please visit https://behindtheknife.org to access other high-yield surgical education podcasts, videos and more.  If you liked this episode, check out our recent episodes here: https://behindtheknife.org/listen Behind the Knife Premium: General Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/general-surgery-oral-board-review Trauma Surgery Video Atlas: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/trauma-surgery-video-atlas Dominate Surgery: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Clerkship: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-clerkship Dominate Surgery for APPs: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Rotation: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-for-apps-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-rotation Vascular Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/vascular-surgery-oral-board-audio-review Colorectal Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/colorectal-surgery-oral-board-audio-review Surgical Oncology Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/surgical-oncology-oral-board-audio-review Cardiothoracic Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/cardiothoracic-surgery-oral-board-audio-review Download our App: Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/behind-the-knife/id1672420049 Android/Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.btk.app&hl=en_US

Both the US and the UK have unique approaches to managing AI within healthcare and our experts help break down these key similarities and differences. We will discuss what AI and machine learning means, what does regulation look like in both these regions, and how is AI being used in both these countries.  We are fortunate to have two representatives, Dr. Nelson and Dr. Larson, representing the US side. Dr. Nelson is a surgical oncologist working at the Brook Army Medical Center in San Antonio, he's very interested in expanding the role of AI within surgical education and beyond. Dr. Larson is a general surgery resident at the Mayo Clinic. She's currently in her research time and finishing up her master's degree in AI and studying the role of machine learning within surgical practice. We are fortunate to have Dr. Mukherjee representing the UK side. Dr. Mukherjee is a surgeon scientist alongside an Honorary Consultant General & Major Trauma Surgeon in Liverpool, England. He has a strong track record in research that spans the translational spectrum, with strengths in discovery science related to acute pancreatitis pathophysiology and mitochondrial injury, novel in vitro and in vivo experimental assay development and clinical translational research, including novel biomarker studies and clinical trials. He has won multiple awards, most recently the Hunterian Professorship 2024 from the Royal College of Surgeons of England. Take a listen and let us know what you think- what do you think is the best way to promote and regulate AI within healthcare?  Please visit https://behindtheknife.org to access other high-yield surgical education podcasts, videos and more.   If you liked this episode, check out our recent episodes here: https://behindtheknife.org/listen Behind the Knife Premium: General Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/general-surgery-oral-board-review Trauma Surgery Video Atlas: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/trauma-surgery-video-atlas Dominate Surgery: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Clerkship: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-clerkship Dominate Surgery for APPs: A High-Yield Guide to Your Surgery Rotation: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/dominate-surgery-for-apps-a-high-yield-guide-to-your-surgery-rotation Vascular Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/vascular-surgery-oral-board-audio-review Colorectal Surgery Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/colorectal-surgery-oral-board-audio-review Surgical Oncology Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/surgical-oncology-oral-board-audio-review Cardiothoracic Oral Board Review Course: https://behindtheknife.org/premium/cardiothoracic-surgery-oral-board-audio-review Download our App: Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/behind-the-knife/id1672420049 Android/Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.btk.app&hl=en_US

We break down critical management strategies, from the 'HAM' protocol to ventilator management, and explain why these patients require massive fluid resuscitation. Tune in to master these high-stakes clinical decisions and ensure you are ready for your next burn patient. Hosts: - Kathleen Romanowski – University of California Davis Hospital, Shriners Hospital Sacramento - Laura Johnson – Grady Memorial Hospital - Lauren Nosanov – Grady Memorial Hospital - Victoria Miles – Louisiana State University Health Science Center, University Medical Center New Orleans Learning Objectives: - Recognize the clinical features and diagnostic challenges of inhalation injury in burn patients, including differentiation from thermal airway injury and flash burns. - Apply evidence-based criteria to guide intubation and ventilatory management, including the avoidance of unnecessary intubation. - Implement key principles of supportive care and complication prevention, including fluid resuscitation, pharmacologic therapies, and long-term airway considerations.
