Turner Syndrome occurs in one out of every 5000 live female births and the diagnosis is usually based on the clinical presentation. In the last 9 years, 17 of 1681 patients who underwent cytogenetic evaluation to investigate uncertain chromosomal anomaly had Turner syndrome. Ten of the patients were the 45,X (classic) type, 2 patients were 46,X,i(Xq), 1 patient was 46,X,der(X)del(X)(p22.1) del(X)(q26), and 4 were mosaic (2 were 45,X/46,XY and the other 2 were 45,X/47,XXX).
