摘要
This case emphasizes the complexity of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), the need for a collaborative approach from specialists, and a closer look at the various cardiovascular complexities associated with this syndrome. While current treatments focus on managing symptoms, ongoing genetic research offers hope for more favorable outcomes. Further studies are crucial to gauge the effectiveness of these treatments for PWS patients. We detail a patient with a complex medical history of PWS, further complicated by congenital heart disease with Eisenmenger's syndrome, diabetes mellitus, pulmonary hypertension, venous insufficiency, hypothyroidism, and hyperlipidemia. Reported in this study is a compilation of clinical data as well as suggestions from several medical specialists in applying a multifaceted approach to treatment, significantly emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary care and management of patients experiencing a combination of various medical issues with an emphasis on cardiovascular complications.
