Aneurysm Surgery Date
Dbrow,
HI my annie is not of the aortic arch. But that sounds pretty scarey. I hope everything works out okay for you. My surgery date is December 7th. Cleveland Clinic did say they could help me. It was suppose to be inoperable. Its at the basilar Terminus and no one wanted to touch it. But they are going to try and do a bypass and clip it in two places. The doctor is Peter Rasmussen from Cleveland Clinic. He has an award for best neurosurgeon in the US and also a honor and an award for best teacher. He is the director there. He said he never seen an aneurysm like mine before but knows he can fix it. It's rare and has 5 arteries feeding into it. I'm really scared but there are alot of people and churches praying. He said this kind of aneurysm will rupture and when it does I wont make it to the hospital. So yes... I'm having the surgery.
So wish me luck everyone
