Summary
This episode includes two full, sample vascular scenarios pulled directly from our Vascular Surgery Oral Board Review Course. Listen in and test your clinical pathways in real-time as we walk through the perfect answers and provide high-yield commentary to help you pass the "hot seat." Sample Scenarios Included in This Episode: Case 22: Aortoenteric Fistula (AEF). A 78-year-old woman presents to the ER with a massive upper GI bleed and a history of an open AAA repair 10 years ago. We walk you through the immediate stabilization, CTA evaluation, and the definitive operative management—including axillobifemoral bypass, aortic stump closure, and duodenal repair. Case 27: Acute Mesenteric Ischemia. A 79-year-old woman with a history of atrial fibrillation presents with abdominal pain out of proportion to her physical exam. Test your decision-making on systemic heparinization, SMA embolectomy versus stenting (ROMS), and how to appropriately evaluate bowel viability with a second-look laparotomy. About our Vascular Surgery Oral Board Review Course: 72 High-Yield Scenarios: Covering everything from carotid stump syndrome to a AAA with a horseshoe kidney.
