Stewy5:
If they're performing TOS surgery and removing a rib, you really want a Vascular Surgeon who has experience with many of these surgeries.

Does your son have vascular issues, neurogenic or both? It sounds like he has many neurogenic issues and the success rate for nTOS surgery is not good. He's only 16. I would suggest getting multiple opinions from conservative surgeons before proceeding with our Nov date. Good luck.
