摘要
Turner syndrome is the most common chromosomal abnormalities in women, due to total or partial loss of the X chromosome. It is characterized by short stature, gonadal dysgenesis and systemic involvement, that leads to an increase in morbidity and mortality and a decrease in quality of life. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach to these women in adulthood is mandatory. This article aims to describe the main implications of Turner syndrome and provide recommendations for its management in adult life.
