Authors
Sybert, V P
Abstract
Turner syndrome (gonadal dysgenesis with sex chromosome abnormalities) is recognized to be a disorder in which cardiovascular malformations are common. The prevalence and natural history of these findings, the risk for aortic dissection, and the occurrence of cardiovascular disease have all been the subject of debate, as have been the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations for cardiac screening of patients with Turner syndrome.
