Prognosis is generally excellent/good/poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#]%.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- The symptoms of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) usually develop in the first decade of life, and start with symptoms as follows:[1]
- Failure to thrive
- Loss of subcutaneous fat
- Poor weight gain
- Weight increase of only 0.44 kg/year
- Short stature
- Decreased linear weight gain
- Alopecia
Complications
- Common complications of [disease name] include:
- [Complication 1]
- [Complication 2]
- [Complication 3]
Prognosis
- Prognosis is generally poor, in patients with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS).[2]
- The presence of progressive atherosclerosis is associated with a particularly poor prognosis among patients with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS).
