This surgical technique paper describes conversion THA using the anterior-based muscle sparing approach, enabling the surgeon to perform an anterior-based THA and remove prox femoral hardware from the same interval. @UofTSurgery @Sunnybrook @dpinc3

Amazing first podium for our excellent @BaharGolbon showing we can prevent 1 fracture if we operate on 24 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. Even President @rebecca_sippel and @F_ThurstonDrake seemed enthralled. @TheAAES #aaes2024 #uoftendosurg #uhnendosurg @aminmadaniMD

Deeply concerned by the inadequate response to the targeting of Israeli civilians by Hamas - a disturbing trend in the global left's political culture. On the statement signed by tens of Israel-based academics & activists committed to peace & human rights: bit.ly/Isr1023

Like every nation in the world, Israel has a right and a duty to respond to these vicious attacks.
I just got off the phone with Prime Minister Netanyahu, and I told him:
If the United States experienced what Israel experienced, our response would be swift, decisive, and overwhelming.
Terrorists purposefully target and kill civilians.
We uphold the laws of war.

Washing surgery wounds is necessary, but we still don’t know the most effective method.
@PaulKaranicolas is evaluating the best practice for keeping surgical wounds clean and avoiding infection.

ALT Dr. Paul Karanicolas: “This simple intervention may improve patient outcomes and reduce the burden to our healthcare system.”
Great to see TRAC in @TorontoStar. Performed 4 anterior THA, 1 posterior THA, 2 TKA, 1 UKA this past weekend that would not have been done without the program. Proud to be part of this incredible team. @injurydr @RuTaggar @CdnOrthoAssoc @AAHKS

Ontario to increase the number of medical school spots as part of push to train more doctors cp24.com/news/ontario-to-inc… via @cp24 This is all well and good, but it will take YEARS to ease the backlog without providing funding for hospitals NOW. We have graduating surgeons ready!

It is the time to reinvent access to surgical care given the pressures experienced by our system. This requires innovative approaches from hospital and system leaders. @acute_care_doc @DavidUrbachMD @DrRKSingal @injurydr @Dr_ChrisSimpson More evidence @ICESOntario coming.
Ontario surgical backlog huge and growing. @DrTonyEskander says there’s been a 30% drop in cancer incidence” with no catch up to those cases.

There have been irreparable damage to surgical care👇 Some necessary to treat #COVID19, some avoidable.
Why are non-urgent surgeries still on hold but bars/restaurants/theatres/gyms/etc opened? A clear plan to recover is *urgently* needed.
#Covid19Ontario
COVID-19 generated backlogs are huge: >20% reduction compared to historical volumes
There is a VERY limited capacity to catch up: will take years
A rebound effect was seen: increased urgent surgery
