Challenging mucosal injury during #GPOEM successfully managed with tunnel-side clip closure after luminal closure failed, preventing leak & surgery. Highlights an important alternative closure approach. Grateful to be part of this innovative technique. @SalihSamo

Fellows - As you begin counseling patients about CRC screening, it’s important to explain test performance in a way that makes sense. Patients don’t think in terms of sensitivity or specificity. They want to know how many cancers or advanced polyps might be missed, or how often

@SalihSamo @MN_GIMD Agree 💯! Goal is to create mucosal disruption. If you start with a small balloon and go up 3 mm, but dont see a disruption, keep pushing. Their is no data behind 3mm in one session. Also, Maloney > balloon due to longitudinal shearing and we often miss strictures elsewhere.

After much reflection, I have made the difficult decision to resign from my role as President & Board Director of @IBDHorizons. As a Co-Founder, I remain proud of what we’ve built over the years. Unfortunately, the organization’s current direction no longer aligns with my values
