Overview
A majority of the patients infected with mumps usually recover completely. However, mumps can occasionally cause complications, and some of them can be serious. Complications may occur even if the patient does not have swollen salivary glands (parotitis) and are more common in people who have reached puberty.
Natural History
Complications
- Symptoms in teenagers and adults may be more severe.
- Complications are relatively rare but may occur in asymptomatic patients and are more common in people who have reached puberty.
- The most common complication is orchitis in post-pubertal males.[1]
- Occurs in approximately 20% of cases in this population
- Orchitis is typically unilateral and testicular atrophy may occur
- Infertility or subfertility is rare but may occur[2] [3] [4]
- Oophoritis and/or mastitis in approximately 5% of post-pubertal females
- Unilateral or less common bilateral transient sensorineural hearing loss - permanent deafness has occurred but is rare[7]
- Meningitis
- Encephalitis
- Spontaneous abortion in about 27% of cases during the first trimester of pregnancy
- Pancreatitis in about 5% of cases[8]
Prognosis
The disease is self-limiting, and the prognosis is generally good, even if other organs are involved. After the illness, life-long immunity to mumps generally occurs. Sterility in men secondary to testicular involvement and death are very rare occurrences.
