What Is The Prognosis For A Child With Aneurysms In The Neck?
The doctors think my daughter has vaastitis arthris but no one seems to be able to for sure make this diagnosis. Who would be the best peron to get a sure diagnosis from. They arent treating her for it becau a e she usually has her symptoms after childbirth but this time it isnt going away. We are concerned about a stoke because she has 2 anurisums in her neck.

Hi,
Neck aneurysms prognosis depends on from where it is originating? Size of aneurysm? Any compression on adjacent structures?
Until examination is done, it is difficult to say what it is. Brain aneurysm or carotid artery aneurysm may prone to repeated episodes of stroke or compression on adjacent structures.
Please consult your pediatric surgeon/vascular surgeon, they will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
