In this episode of CTSNet’s flagship podcast, editor in chief Joel Dunning runs through the latest, most popular content on ctsnet.org—the largest online community of CT surgeons and source of CT surgery information—and breaking cardiothoracic surgery news and research from around the world.

Joel discusses the EACTS and STS review on conduits for CABG, a groundbreaking domino surgery in infants, and coronary plaque sampling to gain molecular insights into coronary artery disease.

He also talks about a video demonstrating direct axillary artery cannulation, a recorded SCTS session on the management of thoracic aortic aneurysms, and a robotic bilateral thymectomy.
