Medical Conditions - Eisenmenger Syndrome

Eisenmenger Syndrome is a rare but serious medical condition that typically arises from untreated congenital heart defects. It involves a reversal of blood flow within the heart and lungs, leading to reduced oxygen levels in the bloodstream. Over time, this can result in symptoms like cyanosis (bluish skin discoloration), fatigue, and shortness of breath. The syndrome often necessitates comprehensive medical management and, in severe cases, lung or heart-lung transplantation.
