The complications of Eisenmenger's syndrome include intracranial hemorrhage, stroke, congestive heart failure, angina pectoris, hyperviscosity syndrome, infection (cerebral abscess), renal failure, and sudden death
Natural History
Complications
The complications of Eisenmenger's syndrome include:
- Intracranial hemorrhage
- Stroke
- Congestive heart failure
- Angina Pectoris
- Hyperviscosity syndrome
- Infection (cerebral abscess)
- Renal failure
- Sudden death
Prognosis
How well the infant or child does depends on whether another medical condition is present, and the age at which high blood pressure develops in the lungs. Patients with this condition can live 20 to 50 years.
