What it the life expectancy for someone with holoprosencephaly?
The prognosis for an infant born with holoprosencephaly depends on the severity of the cerebral and other defects. The prognosis for an infant with severe holoprosencephaly is poor; most do not survive past six months, and those that do are likely to suffer profound mental-retardation. At the mild end of the spectrum, where brain development may be nearly normal, a normal life-spanis likely.
