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 outcomes in patients with acute aortic dissection, robotic vs. full-sternotomy CABG, and a progress report from the SURD-IR trail.

He also talks about a video demonstrating a robotic pericardiectomy, robotic resection of an aberrant right subclavian artery, and an interview with Prof. Teresa Kieser. After discussing upcoming events in the CT surgery world, he closes with a shoutout to Dr. Lars Svensson, the chairman of the heart and vascular institute at Cleveland Clinic.
