What is the prognosis for Leigh's disease? The prognosis for individuals with Leigh's disease is poor. [medicinenet.com]

Prognosis The prognosis for Leigh’s Disease is poor. Depending on the defect, individuals typically live anywhere from a few years to the mid-teens. [umdf.org]

Prognosis is poor, with death usually occurring in childhood. [radiopaedia.org]

Prognosis The prognosis of PDCD is proportional to residual PDC activity. In general, the lower the PDC activity, the earlier the onset and the more severe the disease progression. [emedicine.medscape.com]

PROGNOSIS Prognosis depends upon which disorder, which symptoms and the severity of those symptoms. Some of the conditions we thought were uniformly progressive and fatal are not (Leigh syndrome, for example). [childneurologyfoundation.org]
