A member asked:
What is the prognosis for someone with jacobs syndrome?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cannot Predict: There are too few cases of jacobs syndrome to make any prognostic judgments. Most patient will have some degree of flexion contracture of a joint and suffer from synovitis which is inflammation of the joints. Severe cases also develop inflammation of the muscle surrounding the heart (pericarditis) which causes the greatest risk for life-threatening medical issues.
