Supracristal VSDs (located above the crista supraventicularis) are very rare and comprise only 2%-3% of all VSDs. Many VSDs close spontaneously during childhood; however, a substantial portion may not and are present in adulthood with a myriad of symptoms. We describe the management of a complex case of an adult patient with a supracristal VSD and resultant severe aortic insufficiency (AI) in the perioperative setting.The presentation of fevers in a patient with active intravenous (IV) drug use is often challenging, as there is a wide range of both infectious and noninfectious disorders that can cause fevers. A thorough diagnostic workup is essential in identifying the etiology of these fevers. We report a rare case of an infected right ventricular (RV) thrombus as a cause of persistent fever and sepsis in a 46-year-old patient with IV drug use. The patient continued to have persistent bacteremia inspite of appropriate IV antibiotics. Hence, the patient warranted a cardiothoracic surgical excision of the infected RV thrombus following which the patient showed remarkable improvement.Although international medical graduates (IMGs) constitute considerable percentage of doctors in the National Health Service (NHS), they face several challenges in acclimatizing to the NHS health system. Communication skills, language subtleties, and career progression difficulties are among the most important challenges that overseas doctors face. Some resources are already available to support these doctors and several trusts across the UK have developed local interventions and educational programs to help their doctors bridge the gaps in their knowledge. However, there is no proof of the external validity of these programs and none are identified as effective on a national level. Senior IMGs are leading very
