Health Magazine News: Urologist Breaks Down What Happens When You Get a Vasectomy | Ask An Expert | Health
In this video, urologist Dr. Bob Berookhim breaks down what happens when you get a vasectomy. Although this low-risk procedure is 99.9% effective as a form of birth control, you may be wondering how painful it really is or how long it takes to recover afterwards. Our expert answers these questions and more while emphasizing a few important details, such as the fact that this procedure is NOT effective right away. Although you will likely recover in a matter of days, you are still fertile until a semen analysis shows zero sperm, which happens after about 6-8 weeks.

Medicine Video: Life Saving Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Treatment | Sam's Story
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a hereditary disease that causes progressive weakness and can lead to death. Before a gene therapy medication was developed that changes the way the broken gene in SMA is expressed, there was no way to slow the progression of weakness. Thanks to a huge team effort at Johns Hopkins, this life saving medication has been given over 500 times and has made a profound impact on patients’ lives. Meet the patient who received the 500th dose. #SpinalMuscularAtrophy #JohnsHopkins https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/neurology_neurosurgery/centers_clinics/sma/

Medicine Video: Glioblastoma and BRAF Gene Mutation | Courtney’s Story
After being diagnosed with a glioblastoma brain tumor in 2008, Courtney’s prognosis was not good. A referral to Johns Hopkins neuro-oncologist Karisa Schreck and neurosurgeon Jon Weingart changed the course of her illness. They identified the tumor as having a specific mutation in the BRAF gene, and they used a combination of surgery, conventional chemoradiation and targeted therapy to reduce its size and then keep the cancer in remission. Courtney is incredibly thankful to be able to enjoy life as a wife and a mother — and to raise chickens. #Glioblastoma #BRAFgene #JohnsHopkins
