    Looks like lead! But it isn’t! Equivalent radiation protection with barium sulfate, bismuth oxide impregnated fabric. Lighter washable why didn’t I know bout this?

    Nothing moves clot like a Fogarty catheter! No one makes a gigantic incision like Dr Arko! -- Was this a thigh fasciotomy?

    I have moved to an endo first approach for ALI. I’m often asked when would I still do an open embolectomy. Here is a case in which I went open. Popliteal and three vessel occlusion with motor loss. (R2B) knowing fasciotomies will be required. Embolectomy of pop and all 3 tibials
