Conceptual Basis of Turner Syndrome
Abstract
Turner Syndrome (TS) is a relatively common chromosomal disorder affecting females. It is characterized by the partial or complete absence of one of the X chromosomes, resulting in a wide range of physical, developmental, and medical difficulties. TS has been the subject of extensive research and clinical studies, providing valuable insights into the genetic and physiological basis of female development. This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the conceptual basis of Turner Syndrome, its genetic origins, clinical manifestations, diagnostic criteria, and current therapeutic approaches.
