However, because of this carcinoma's great propensity for early local invasion of adjacent vital structures by neural, perineural, subepithelial, and lymphatic spread, the prognosis of these patients is usually guarded. [jamanetwork.com]
Outlook (Prognosis) Symptoms most often go away without treatment in a few days in otherwise healthy people. Possible Complications Dehydration Long-term diarrhea Note: In babies, the diarrhea can cause severe dehydration that comes on very quickly. [nicklauschildrens.org]
