A Tribute to Dr. David Feliciano: Case of the Month Series

In honor of the life and work of Dr. David Feliciano, who passed away on January 4, 2024, Trauma Surgery & Acute Care Open is pleased to present the entirety of Dr. Feliciano’s Case of the Month series. As an Associate Editor for TSACO, Dr. Feliciano brought to the journal his many years of experience in the field. Recognizing Dr. Feliciano’s vast clinical expertise and world-renowned skill as an educator, Dr. Tim Fabian, founding Editor-in-Chief of TSACO, invited him to contribute his most interesting (and unusual) cases to the journal, which he did with a series of over two dozen cases published during the years 2018 to 2022.
