This patient presented to me with a painful discoloration in her right small fingernail. Cold weather 🥶 seemed to aggravate the pain. I suspected a , and MRI confirmed the diagnosis. You can see the tumor light up on the study. I removed the pesky mass in the operating room in an outpatient surgery. A month later the patient was pain free, back to work, and her nail was stable 💅

Christopher Diaz MS4 was the first HMSoM medical student to complete the Plastic and Hand Surgery elective for the Winter/Spring ‘26 semester. Chris is a future orthopedic surgeon and did a wonderful job on rotation with us this month. He gave his final presentation today on “Flap Coverage of Open Tibial Shaft Fractures” and it was well done. I wish him well on his future career in orthopedics and spine surgery and hope he has gained knowledge and skills from the course that will help him help others in the future 🙏🏻 👨🏻‍⚕️

This lovely lady presented to me with concerns of deflation and sagging in her breasts after losing a significant amount of weight. She felt like she had to “pour” her breasts into her bra. I recommended a mastopexy with dermal suspension and parenchymal reshaping (Rubin mastopexy). In this technique we use the patient’s own breast tissue to augment her breasts while performing the lift. She is three weeks out from surgery and her breasts look lifted, perky, and natural. She also shows great improvement in her significant pre-op asymmetry. The medical student on rotation with me today asked me what type of implants I used for her and my answer was “none”. 👙👀🔥

This bow tie was a gift from an amazing patient years ago when Syria was in terrible shape, without much hope for a future or for freedom. It meant very much to me when she gave it to me but I wasn’t sure how much I would ever wear it. Today I get to wear it to work on the one year anniversary of Syria’s liberation and I am so grateful. Happy Syrian Liberation Day! 🇸🇾🦅🙏🏻

CAUTION ⚠️ GRAPHIC ⚠️ ACHTUNG For those following my IG closely, you may remember a post from the Vancouver ASSH conference where I had the opportunity to demo a new sutureless technology in nerve repair, . Today I used it in a real patient for the first time. This young electrician lacerated his wrist on sheet metal and severed his radial sensory nerve causing numbness over his thumb. I used the Nerve Tape to repair the nerve today at our surgical center and it worked wonderfully 👍🏻 🌯
