How long can a person live with cystic medical necrosis?

Cystic medical necrosis (also called caseous necrosis) is not a condition that a person can live with, as it is indicative of a serious underlying condition. Caseous necrosis is a specific type of necrosis, or cell death, that occurs in response to certain infections or inflammatory conditions. It presents as an area of dead tissue, which can appear as small, pus-filled cavities or larger areas of necrosis.

The presence of cystic medical necrosis requires prompt medical attention and treatment of the underlying cause, as it can lead to serious complications including the spread of infection, sepsis, and organ failure.
