FOCUS ON MOYA MOYA DISEASE.
⬇️
Definition: Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic, occlusive cerebrovascular disease characterized by progressive stenosis at the terminal portion of the internal carotid artery and an abnormal vascular network at the base of the brain.
⬇️
Epidemiology: Moyamoya is a disease of children and young people, with a bi-modal age distribution:.
️early childhood: peak ~4 years of age (two-thirds)
️middle age: 30-40 years of age (one-third)
The condition was initially described in Japanese patients, where it is still most common, in which 7-10%
of cases are familial.
⬇️
Clinical presentation: The clinical presentations of MMD include TIA, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, seizures, headache, and cognitive impairment. The incidence of each symptom varies according to the age of the patient. An ischemic event is the most important clinical manifestation of MMD. Cerebral hypoperfusion due to progressive major vessel occlusion results in repeated hemodynamic TIAs or ischemic strokes in children or young adults.
⬇️
Diagnosis: Definitive diagnosis of MMD requires catheter angiography in unilateral cases, while bilateral cases can be promptly diagnosed by either catheter angiography or MRA. Based on various angiographic findings, Suzuki and Takaku proposed 6 stages of angiographic evolution. Small abnormal net-like vessels proliferate giving the characteristic "puff of smoke" appearance on direct angiography.
⬇️
Treatment:.
️In adults, external carotid artery to middle cerebral artery (ECA-MCA) anastomoses can be performed as the vessels are larger. One of the surgical options is the superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass. (This is what you can see in the picture and video of the post)
️Encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (transposition of a segment of a scalp artery onto the surface of the brain) is the treatment of choice in pediatric patients as their vessels are too small to allow direct anastomosis. .

#Repost @operatingroomissues - To be a surgeon/surgery nurse/ tech.... From the time you put the scrubs, your family comes second.
Long days, long cases, no lunch, no breaks.
An incision is made with hope for a cure, but the cancer has spread and you close without closure.
The baby is born but no breath is taken.
911 has been called. ER starts the code. Surgery is notified. An incision is made. The bleeding won't stop. The injury is too severe.
Compressions are done but no pulse returns. Breaths are given but the sats keep falling. Beep beep beep ................ No time to rest. No time to stop. The next add on is here. The surgeon awaits. No time to grieve. No place to hide. Your call shift just started. Rarely do you hear praise, or a pat on the back. The patients don't remember your name or that you prayed with them at the start.
You are the unsung hero. The person without a voice. You are beaten, broken, tired, and ready to go again. You have no quit. You just keep going. Day after day. Call hour after call hour you keep doing what it is that you do.
Calm fears. Hold hands. Save lives.
They may not remember who you were or what you did for them, but you do. You know that they are able to see their kids, grand kids, husbands, wives, parents, and friends again because you were there for them at all hours of the day or night.
To all O.R. Professionals everywhere. Thank you for what you do. Thank you for who you are. I know what you give. I know the impact on your health and on your families. I know that you wouldn't change it for the world.

Early in my career as a PA, I committed a HUGE rookie mistake. Listen up so you don’t make the same mistake.
.
.
As hard as it was to admit to myself, I was really emotionally attached to my first job in CT surgery. I was attached to my mentor, I was attached to the exponential professional growth I had there, and I was especially attached to the fact that everyone saw me go from a student, to a rockstar team member.
.
.
But here’s the thing. That job was sucking the life out of me. Towards the end, I was 1 of 2 PAs left that covered 7 surgeons across 9 hospitals, and we did it all, OR, rounds, 24 hr call, weekends holidays you name it. So when other opportunities started to present themselves, I listened to what they had to say. .
.
I got one offer I was seriously considering, but I felt guilty as hell leaving my job cuz I knew the situation was going to crush my PA colleague and my surgeons. I was torn, and didn’t know what move to make. So I went to my surgeon ♀️ and told him what I was dealing with, expecting fatherly advice since that was the kind of relation
I thought we had- instead he was LIVID. I mean like spittin’ Fire
.
.
He accused me of trying to extort him for a raise, then he said I had to pay back my discretionary bonuses ( YA OK! U gonna have to rip this money out of my cold dead hands I earned tf out of that sh***!) The whole thing blew up in my face in the worst way. The rest of my time there, was a nightmare. Everyone was so angry. The other PA, took an immediate 2 week vacation & left me alone, lol who can blame him! They wanted me to suffer for leaving.
.
.
Anywho, the moral of the story is: we do tend to get emotionally attached to jobs where we grow a lot, but don’t let that interfere with your sense of $elf worth and negotiating skills. Also, please for the love of GOD, never tell a job or any coworker ( cuz you know most of us can’t keep our mouth shut- myself included) you’re “Thinking” about leaving. People will be MAD, and u won’t leave on good terms. Just drop your notice out of nowhere like a celeb getting divorced, and go enjoy your life. Who can relate?
