My favourite post Christmas meal is turkey enchiladas. Make them with my daughter every year

We’ve had the odd one where the stent has leaked a little but never to impact surgery too much. But if you think of those few patients with bad pancreatitis post ercp, who struggle to reach surgery, overall I think CDD may be better.

We do it quite a lot. Usually never an issue.
I like the fact it eliminates risk of post procedure pancreatitis.

As much as guidelines for clinicians. I wonder if better decision support tools for patients are needed. So much of treatment decision-making is based on the patient’s interpretation and approach to risk.

I think the most senior surgeons tend to have the most senior anaesthetic teams and OR teams. These teams can facilitate quick changeover - troubleshooting, and high level decision-making while the surgeons are still focussed on operating.

Different steaks for different moods.
Chateaubriand with a good bearnaise difficult to beat but sometimes rump is needed. Or indeed a rare bavette.
Mouth starting to water I better go have lunch.
