Overview
Natural History
- The symptoms of Friedreich’s Ataxia usually develop in the second decade of life but the onset of disease may be as early as age 2 years and as late as the 8th decade, and start with progressive ataxiae.[1]
Complications
- Common complications of Friedreich’s Ataxia include:
- The presence of diabetes and dilated cardiomyopathy has a negative impact on survival of patients with Friedreich’s Ataxia.[5]
Prognosis
- The average age of death of patients with Friedreich’s Ataxia is at 37.5 years.[8]
- Depending on the extent of the disease progression at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary.
- The presence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is associated with a particularly poor prognosis among patients with Friedreich’s Ataxia.[9]
