Cerebral white matter lesions are incurable and will progressively worsen with age, and if combined with other underlying diseases (diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, etc.), the progression of cerebral white matter lesions will be accelerated. Most of the cases are in the elderly, and none of the related clinical deaths are directly caused by white matter lesions. There is also a lack of relevant clinical statistics, so the specific survival period cannot be estimated at present.
