The entire heart can be adequately perfused by a single patent graft. The internal thoracic artery provides the most durable inflow source we know.
Surgeons at @CleClinicHVTI found that patent bypass grafts can sustain survival in patients even after ostial occlusion of all epicardial coronary arteries. Read the editor's choice article for free in #JTCVS until 10/30: hubs.la/Q04z3NFV0

Deeply honored and humbled to be announced as the next President of the American College of Cardiology.
For nearly two decades, the ACC has been my professional home. I am grateful for the trust of my colleagues and the privilege of serving our global cardiovascular community.
As a cardiothoracic surgeon, I am especially humbled to represent the breadth of our profession and the power of the Heart Team.

See how we dealt with incidental Lyme infective endocarditis (very rare pathology) in a patient with #oHCM. Complex valve repair allowed us to avoid implantation of a prosthetic valve in an infected field. @JLmaigrotMD @AATSJournals jtcvstechniques.org/article/…

Proud to help launch CCF’s robotic transplant program. This milestone reflects the dedication of an extraordinary multidisciplinary team and the support of an institution willing to thoughtfully invest in the future of transplant surgery. Here’s to many more!
We performed our first robotic lung transplant in the U.S., expanding a minimally invasive option for patients.
The approach uses small incisions to help reduce pain and support faster recovery.
Every transplant depends on the generosity of organ donors.

In patients with CKD on dialysis, the Ozaki procedure is an alternative to bioprosthetic AVR and may provide better hemodynamics and resistance to deterioration @ShinyaUnai @MdGosta @williamcfrankel @AATSJournals

Just published: our review of temperature mgmt in cardiac surgery. Hypothermia may improve end-organ protection but at the cost of coagulopathy. Without a single best approach, CPB temperature should be individualized to the patient, operation, and center

Honored to present Dr. Ozaki’s outcomes of Ozaki procedure using bovine pericardium @AATSHQ
For patients with diseased pericardium or those undergoing MIS, midterm durability is similar to the Ozaki procedure with autologous pericardium or bioprosthetic AVR! @ShinyaUnai @MdGosta

An honor to present two of our papers at this year’s @AATSHQ conference, in huge thanks to @CleClinicHVTI @CCF_CTSRes and mentors such as @HElgharablyMD @JamesJYunMDPhD. More to come as they become available in @AATSJournals!

Presented the COMMENCE Trial at #AATS2026 - the 10 yr data is encouraging, showing low rates of structural valve deterioration & reoperation, even in younger pts who typically face higher risks.
This tissue technology could reshape how we think about biological valve durability.

Proud to have our Aorta Center team @CleClinicHVTI participate in many #AortaEd sessions @ #AATS2026 - highlighting our work and innovation, sharing insights, and contributing to discussions that shape how we manage patients with aortic disease.

How does type of radiation impact outcomes in redo surgery? Is there harm in leaving moderate valvular disease at index operation?
Sunday @ 3:00pm in 351! Incredibly grateful for @HElgharablyMD’s mentorship. Excited to hear others’ thoughts and expertise.
@AATSHQ @CCFSurgery
@daniel_ragheb is presenting at #AATS2026 the outcomes of cardiac surgery reoperations in patients with history of radiation, largest cohort from @CleClinicHVTI aats.org/resources/reoperati…
