Multidisciplinary Approach to Vascular Anomalies Maximizes Outcomes

The birth of a child is a glorious and simultaneously nerve-wracking event in every family. If this is the 1 in 22 children born with a vascular lesion of the head and neck (which is visible in every picture and to every visitor), the parents' concerns multiply. Will my baby bleed? Will my baby stay deformed by this lesion? Is this the tip of the iceberg of other problems? Will my baby be forced to enter chronic medical/surgical care? These are some of the questions that race through the parents' brains, even as they marvel at the wondrousness of new life.
