Mathieu Jaboulay (1860-1913) was an inventor in vascular and general surgery. He fabricated many new surgical techniques and instruments such as Jaboulay method for vascular sutures, Jaboulay anastomotic button, and Jaboulay amputation, known also as hemipelvectomy. In addition, he was a pioneer in heterologous transplantation and sympathectomy. He found death suddenly in a terrible train crash. He was a reputable Professor of Surgery at Lyon Faculty of Medicine with prestigious students in vascular surgery.

ABSTRACT Background Increasing diversity in medicine is receiving more attention yet underrepresented in medicine (UiM) surgeons remain a small fraction of all surgeons. Whether surgical training programs attempt to attract UiM applicants to their programs, and therefore their specialties, through program website information is unclear. Objective To analyze the scope of diversity and inclusion (D&I) related information on US allopathic and osteopathic general surgery, integrated thoracic surgery, and integrated vascular surgery residency program websites. Methods Residency programs were identified through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) in July 2020. We searched surgical program websites and collected data on the presence or absence of variables labeled “diversity & inclusion” or “underrepresented in medicine.” Variables found on program websites as well as sites linked to the program website were included. We excluded programs identified in ERAS as fellowship training programs. Programs without webpages were also excluded. Results We identified 425 residency programs and excluded 22 from data analysis. Only 75 of the 403 included programs (18.6%) contained D&I-related information. The presence of individual variables was also low, ranging from 4.5% for opportunities related to early exposure to the specialty to 11.1% for a written or video statement of commitment to D&I. Conclusions In 2020, as recruitment and interviews moved entirely online, few US allopathic and osteopathic general surgery, integrated thoracic surgery, and integrated vascular surgery residency programs provided D&I-related information for residency applicants on their program websites.

Introduction. The aim of this prospective study was to assess the efficacy of a vascular surgery course (2008-2012), and to verify the viability and the feasibility of the vascular anastomoses.Material and method. Vascular surgical techniques performed simultaneously on pigs were: enlargement prosthetic angioplasty, abdominal aortic interposition graft and aortoiliac bypass. Endpoints of the study were the surgical skills and the technical quality, evaluated on a scale ranging from 1 (satisfactory) to 3 (very good) for our participants.Result. A significant improvement in vascular surgical skills tasks was observed during the study years and we also found a semnificative statistical association between the quality of suture and the surgical technique used (Kendall coefficient=0.71, p=0.001<0.05).Conclusions. Our course contributed to the improvement of technical vascular surgical skills of the operator teams, reproducing in vivo, in pigs, the intraoperative environment as in human patients.

Modern diagnostic modalities as well as ongoing improvement of vascular prosthetic material and surgical techniques have stimulated progress in vascular surgery. New discoveries concerning the mechanism of endothelial function, atherosclerosis, developments in gene therapy and endovascular techniques will expand the future therapeutic spectrum of vascular surgery. Endoluminal implantation of stent grafts for the treatment of aortic aneurysm may be a reasonable alternative to conventional surgery, especially in high-risk patients. Long-term results of this procedure, however, are not yet available. Stenting of internal carotid artery stenosis may be considered as an experimental method of treatment. Its feasibility, efficacy, safety and long-term results must be analyzed before the application of the method may be restricted or recommended. Endoluminal irradiation (brachytherapy) reduces intimal hyperplasia/restenosis and can improve the long-term results of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. Anti-atherosclerotic and anti-aggregatory therapy (with statins, estrogens, antibiotics, nitric oxide precursor/donors, glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitors) will play an important role in the prevention of ischemic diseases and improve the results of surgical/interventional treatment by reducing intimal hyperplasia and restenosis. Gene therapy opens new vistas in vascular medicine. Angiogenetic factors can be used for the treatment of patients with distal occlusion of the peripheral arteries. Gene transfer may be useful in the conservative treatment of progressive aortic aneurysms. A more unified vision toward vascular medicine might be the key for research and development in the future.
