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

Common complications of [disease name] include:
- [Complication 1]
- [Complication 2]
- [Complication 3]

Prognosis

Prognosis is generally excellent/good/poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#]%.
Depending on the extent of the [tumor/disease progression/etc.] at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as poor/good/excellent.
The presence of [characteristic of disease] is associated with a particularly [good/poor] prognosis among patients with [disease/malignancy].
[Subtype of disease/malignancy] is associated with the most favorable prognosis.
The prognosis varies with the [characteristic] of tumor; [subtype of disease/malignancy] have the most favorable prognosis.

+Common complications of [disease name] include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
-* A hole (perforation) is a serious complication due to risk of infection. If not treated, intussusception is almost always fatal for infants and young children.
-==Prognosis==
+OR
-* Intussusception is a [[medical emergency]], as it will eventually cause death if not reduced. When an intussusception or any other severe medical problem is suspected, the person must be taken to a hospital immediately.
-* The outlook for intussusception is excellent when treated quickly, but when untreated it can lead to death within 2&ndash;5 days.
+Prognosis is generally excellent/good/poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#]%.
-* Fast treatment is a necessity, because the longer the intestine segment is prolapsed the longer it goes without bloodflow, and the less effective a non-surgical reduction will be.
+==Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis==
-* Prolonged intussusception also increases the likelihood of bowel ischemia and necrosis, requiring surgical resection.
