Abstract
- Here, we describe a case of Turner syndrome first diagnosed at 61 years of age. The patient's chief complaint was general edema. A cardiologist was consulted, who performed echocardiogram and coronary heart computed tomography. Chromosomal analysis yielded inconclusive results for Turner syndrome. The patient's karyotype was 45,X[17]/46,X,psu idic(Y)(q11.23), and she was referred to a gynecologist a time span. The patient was nulliparous with no history of sexual contact. We performed a prophylactic gonadectomy, but no malignancy was detected pathologically. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
