Turner syndrome: diagnosis and management.
Turner syndrome occurs in one out of every 2,500 to 3,000 live female births. The syndrome is characterized by the partial or complete absence of one X chromosome (45,X karyotype). Patients with Turner syndrome are at risk of congenital heart defects (e.g., coarctation of aorta, bicuspid aortic valve) and may have progressive aortic root dilatation or dissection. These patients also are at risk...
متن کاملDevelopment of disease-specific growth charts in Turner syndrome and Noonan syndrome
Many congenital diseases are associated with growth failure, and patients with these diseases have specific growth patterns. As the growth patterns of affected individuals differ from those of normal populations, it is challenging to detect additional conditions that can influence growth using standard growth charts. Disease-specific growth charts are thus very useful tools and can be helpful f...

The adult phenotype can be extremely subtle, and many adults are diagnosed only after the birth of a more obviously affected child. Whether diagnosis is made in childhood or adulthood, initial and ongoing evaluation of many systems can have considerable health benefits.
متن کاملValidation of auxological reference values for Japanese children with Noonan syndrome and comparison with growth in children with Turner syndrome
We recently published growth references for Japanese individuals with Noonan syndrome (NS). However, it is uncertain whether these references can be used to evaluate the longitudinal growth of children with NS. In addition, these charts did not include detailed values suitable for clinical practice, and they did not include weight-for-height (WFH) charts. In the present study, we validated the ...
متن کاملNoonan syndrome
Noonan Syndrome (NS) is characterised by short stature, typical facial dysmorphology and congenital heart defects. The incidence of NS is estimated to be between 1:1000 and 1:2500 live births. The main facial features of NS are hypertelorism with down-slanting palpebral fissures, ptosis and low-set posteriorly rotated ears with a thickened helix. The cardiovascular defects most commonly associa...
