In this episode of HSS Presents, rheumatologist Dr. Anne Bass is joined by Dr. Deanna Jannat-Khah of HSS and Dr. Michael Postow of Memorial Sloan Kettering to explore immune checkpoint inhibitor–induced arthritis. They discuss how life-saving immunotherapies for cancer can trigger inflammatory joint disease, the challenges of balancing tumor control with autoimmune toxicity, and the latest evidence on safe use of steroids and biologics. The panel also highlights ongoing research into mechanisms, phenotypes, and long-term outcomes, underscoring the importance of multidisciplinary care for cancer patients who develop musculoskeletal complications from immunotherapy.

In this episode of HSS Presents, rheumatologist Dr. Genna Braverman hosts a conversation with Dr. Arthur Yee and cardiologists Dr. Evelyn Horn and Dr. Irina Sobol on the interplay between the heart and rheumatic diseases. They discuss how conditions like sarcoidosis and scleroderma can affect the myocardium, valves, conduction system, and pulmonary vasculature—leading to heart failure, arrhythmias, and pulmonary hypertension. The panel highlights advances in imaging, from cardiac MRI to PET scans, and evolving treatments that combine immunosuppression, device therapy, and guideline-directed cardiac care. With insights into the new Cardio-Rheumatology Program at HSS and Weill Cornell, listeners will hear how collaboration between specialties is improving outcomes for patients with autoimmune diseases that affect the heart.

In this episode of HSS Presents, Dr. Jessica Heyer is joined by Drs. Shevaun Doyle and Emily Dodwell to explore the diagnosis and management of pediatric physeal and transitional ankle fractures. The team unpacks the unique growth plate closure patterns that give rise to triplane and Tillaux fractures, emphasizing the importance of advanced imaging and early intervention. They discuss surgical approaches, fixation strategies, and the nuances of treating medial malleolar involvement while balancing risks such as growth disturbances and long-term joint health. Packed with clinical insights and practical pearls, this episode is a must-listen for pediatric orthopedic surgeons navigating the complexities of adolescent ankle injuries.
