Prognosis of Familial Heart Disease
Reading time: 1 min
The prognosis varies widely depending on the type of cardiopathy, its severity, and the age at which symptoms first appear.
Different hereditary heart diseases increase the risk of serious arrhythmias and stroke, which can have major after-effects, so early diagnosis and family screening is essential.
The impact on daily life also varies according to the type of heart disease and its severity, and can be dramatically improved with specific treatments such as myectomy or septal ablation in the case of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
