The resilience & healing power of the human body are truly remarkable. A striking example is the Winslow pathway in a patient with complete infrarenal aortic occlusion.It’s a powerful reminder of how the body adapts to maintain perfusion despite vascular disease.@matheenkhuddus

Replacement of aortic valve by cardiac surgeons 🫀. The aortic valve is a heart valve that controls blood flow from the heart into the rest of the body. It ensures blood flows in one direction and prevents backflow into the heart.

This image captures the striking appearance of a large ascending aortic aneurysm, a life-threatening condition characterized by abnormal dilation of the aorta. Left untreated, such aneurysms pose a significant risk of rupture or dissection, leading to catastrophic outcomes.

Stunning view of the human spinal cord and the pulsations of the cerebrospinal fluid.🧠.

We are seeing brain 🧠 surgery here to repair an aneurysm in the middle cerebral artery.
