No lumbar access? Call #irad University of Arizona VIR for a suboccipital approach. Subarachnoid Nusinersen injection for SMA. Amazing the challenging things imaging makes routine!

Unsuccessful TIPS at OSH for refractory variceal bleeding due to complete portal vein thrombosis. Transferred to University of Arizona VIR for ICE guided transjugular portal vein recanalization, Angiojet thrombectomy, and TIPS creation. Venogram 1 week later widely patent w/ a 4 mmHg gradient

Trauma embolization for splenic laceration after MVC. Great example of a pancreatica magna anastomosing with the transverse pancreatic artery. If you use gelfoam for embolization, you must be beyond these branches or risk pancreatitis! Know your anatomy.

Brad Trinidad, MD Society of Interventional Radiology UofAZ Surgery Residents @paddytrin Tony Zimmerman I’m so surprised that in 2020 we still have a notion of #iRad not being a primary speciality providing cutting edge care 24/7/365. Its time to change the viewpoint.. #iRad doesn’t ever shy away from any care the patients ever need without worrying about time or day.
