Overview

If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].

OR

Common complications of [disease name] include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].

OR

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 (disease name) usually develop in the first/ second/ third decade of life, and start with symptoms such as ___.
  • The symptoms of (disease name) typically develop ___ years after exposure to ___.
  • If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].

Complications

Prognosis

  • Prognosis of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is poor when untreated.
  • Treatment with glucocorticoids has been shown to improve prognosis.[7]
  • Prognosis of Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is most likely dependent on stage at which the disease was diagnosed and organ involvement.
  • The following are favorable prognostic factors:
    • Early diagnosis of the disease
    • Decreased cutaneous involvement
    • Elevated C-reactive protein
    • The following are poor prognostic factors:
    • Five-Factor Score Assessment
      • Proteinuria > 1g/d

Creatinine > 140mm/l Cardiomyopathy Severe GI manifestations CNS involvement




In the past the prognosis of Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis was fatal when untreated. Patients who were not treated had an estimated 5 year survival rate of 20 to 30%. Today, the prognosis of Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis is heavily dependent on starting treatment with a glucocorticoid.

The following are favorable prognostic factors:[2]

Early diagnosis of the disease Decreased cutaneous involvement Elevated C-reactive protein The following are poor prognostic factors:

Five-Factor Score Assessment Proteinuria > 1g/d Creatinine > 140mm/l Cardiomyopathy Severe GI manifestations CNS involvement According to the Five-Factor Score, a score of 0, 1, or greater than 2 has the following mortality rate: Five-Factor Score Score Mortality Rate 0 12% 1 26% >2 46% [3] It has also been concluded that age greater than 65 is also a risk factor for mortality.[4]
