Prognosis - Lowry Wood syndrome Not supplied. [checkorphan.org]
The natural history of LWS is poorly understood and long term prognosis difficult to predict. Orthopedic complications such as joint dislocations, early arthritis and limited joint mobility are likely to occur at a young age. [ashg.org]
Often fatal – if not fatal, prognosis may be similar to that of severe TBI. – Other sxs: dilated pupils, LOC, loss of eye mvmt, respiratory failure. [slideplayer.com]
