Do the words “Is there a doctor on board” fill you with anxiety? For Dr. Thomas Doyle, responding to in flight medical events is just another day at the office. As the medical director for STAT-MD, him and his team provide on the ground consultation for passengers experiencing medical events at 35,000 feet.

You get called to see a consult in the middle of the night. It is a middle-aged woman with a bariatric history, and she says her stomach is smaller but doesn’t know the name of the operation. She developed worsening abdominal pain after dinner and it’s been getting worse. She’s not peritonitic, but she’s clearly in discomfort. Is it cholecystitis, diverticulitis, pancreatitis, marginal ulcer, or an internal hernia? What do you do? Join Drs. Matthew Martin, Adrian Dan, and Paul Wisniowski on a discussion about initial evaluation and management of bariatric patients with internal hernias.  Show Hosts: Matthew Martin Adrian Dan Paul Wisniowski Show Notes 1.     Initial Evaluation a.     Focused history and physical, labs, and imaging                                       i.     Presenting symptoms may vary and include: nausea, emesis, and abdominal pain ranging from vague to severe.                                        ii.     A basic lab panel can aid in developing the diagnosis and guide resuscitation.                                     iii.     CT of the abdomen and pelvis with IV and oral contrast can assist in identifying intra-abdominal pathology                                     iv.     Reviewing the previous operative report is beneficial to have a framework of the anatomy, i.e. type of bariatric surgery, and configuration of small bowel limbs (ante- vs retro-gastric and ante- vs retro-colic). 1.     According to a 2019 study, 40-60% of closed defects had reopened at time of re-exploration                                       v.     If the patient is peritonitic with abdominal pain, they should be treated similarly to any patient with an acute abdomen with emergent exploration. b.     CT Imaging                                        i.     A mesenteric swirl sign with twisting of the soft tissue and mesenteric vessels with surrounding fat attenuation has been shown to have a sensitivity of 78-100% and specificity of 80-90%. Other findings include: a Bird’s beak, dilation of roux or biliopancreatic limbs, SMV narrowing, and displacement of JJ limb to the RUQ and can be used to support the diagnosis of internal hernia                                      ii.     An experienced radiologist familiar with bariatric anatomy has been shown to have a positive predictive value to 81% and negative predictive value to 96% at radiologically diagnosing internal hernia.                                      iii.     A CT scan can provide insight for a suspected diagnosis but it cannot rule out internal hernia c.      Nasogastric/Esophageal Tube                                       i.     Use judiciously based on patient’s presenting symptoms                                      ii.     Placement should be done by the surgical team                                      iii.     This may mitigate the risk of aspiration during intubation. 2.     Operative Management a.     Entry should be dependent on the comfort of the operating surgeon.                                        i.     Veress entry into the abdomen with dilated bowels may lead to increased injuries.                                       ii.     Optiview allows for direct visualization of each layer of the abdominal wall. Focusing on twisting the trochar and limiting perpendicular pressure.                                      iii.     Hasson entry also allows for direct visualization but may be limiting in bariatric patients with thick abdominal walls b.     Exploration – a systematic approach                                       i.     Start with evaluation of the gastric pouch and run the rou

We know cardiac surgery can seem a bit daunting on the surface. However, most surgeons will come across cardiac surgery patients at some point whether in the OR, ICU, ED, etc. As the FIRST cardiac surgery specialty team for Behind the Knife, we are excited to bring you episodes focused on high-yield topics to help you navigate common cardiac surgery challenges, discuss relevant literature to help you in practice, and help our listeners feel more comfortable around cardiac surgery patients.  In this episode we’ll discuss mitral valve disease. We’ll review important physiologic differences in patients with mitral valve disease, the most common surgical approaches to address mitral valve disease, and how to work up and address acute mitral regurgitation due to acute papillary muscle rupture.  Hosts:  - Jessica Millar, MD- PGY-5 General Surgery Resident, University of Michigan, @Jess_Millar15 - Aaron William, MD- Cardiothoracic Surgery Fellow, Duke University, @AMWilliamsMD - Nick Teman, MD- Assistant Professor of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, University of Virginia, @nickteman Learning objectives: - Understand the physiologic differences that occur with mitral valve stenosis and regurgitation.  - Understand the basic principles of mitral valve repair and replacement strategies.  - Understand the presentation, work-up, and acute management of acute mitral valve regurgitations due to acute papillary muscle rupture/MI.   For episode ideas/suggestions/feedback feel free to email Jessica Millar at: millarje@med.umich.edu **Introducing Behind the Knife's Trauma Surgery Video Atlas - https://app.behindtheknife.org/premium/trauma-surgery-video-atlas/show-content The Trauma Surgery Video Atlas contains 24 scenarios that include never-before-seen high-definition operative footage, rich, original illustrations, and practical, easy-to-read pearls that will help you dominate the most difficult trauma scenarios.
