Advances in laboratory evaluation of Turner syndrome and its variants: beyond cytogenetics studies.

Abstract excerpt

Turner syndrome is a clinically defined phenotype that is characterized by partial or complete X chromosome monosomy. A host of cytogenetic aberrations and mosaicism have been associated with this syndrome. Some individuals, Turner syndrome variants, have cytogenetic findings consistent with Turner syndrome, but exhibit atypical clinical phenotypes. Recently, several molecular tests have been presented to allow...
