National Collaborative Study of Girls Prenatally Diagnosed With Turner Syndrome Karyotypes
The goal of this study is to compare the features of Turner syndrome in girls who are
diagnosed before birth because of fetal concerns versus those who are diagnosed when their
mother has an amniocentesis for another reason.
diagnosed before birth because of fetal concerns versus those who are diagnosed when their
mother has an amniocentesis for another reason.
This is an observational study which will look at girls who are diagnosed with Turner
syndrome before they are born. Girls will be divided into two groups: 1) those diagnosed
because of features seen on ultrasound which raised the question of Turner syndrome and 2)
those diagnosed incidentally when their mother had an amniocentesis for another reason such
as advanced maternal age.
No clinical procedures nor interventions will be done as part of this data collection study
which will occur for the first 3 to 6 years of the girl's life. The investigators will be
looking to see if girls who are diagnosed incidentally have less features of Turner syndrome
than those girls who are diagnosed because of fetal ultrasound.
