Abstract

Turner syndrome (TS) is the most common chromosomal disorder in women, which is caused by absence or structural abnormality of X chromosome. The most common features of TS are short stature, gonadal dysgenesis and congenital heart and kidney diseases. Spectrum of congenital heart diseases is highly varied and most often the left side of the heart is affected. Bicuspid aortic valve and coarctation of the aorta are the most frequent of them. Authors present case reports of four patients with TS and the anomaly of the aortic arch but with clinically different manifestation and a brief overview of this topic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
