After the conclusion of dental treatment and several follow-up visits, it was possible to detect fractures of some of the composite restorations, so endodontic treatments were performed and steel crowns were installed. [contempclindent.org]

Prognosis The prognosis in RTS is variable: life expectancy is normal in the absence of cancer, whereas outcomes in patients with malignant pathologies depend on the quality and frequency of cancer screening and treatment. [orpha.net]

Her prognosis is guarded in view of the increased incidence of neoplasms in this condition. More than 200 cases of RTS have now been reported worldwide.1 This is the first report of siblings with haematological disease and RTS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
