<b>Undiagnosed morbidity in adult women with Turner's syndrome</b>

Abstract

There is a high incidence of undiagnosed lipid, thyroid and bone mineral density abnormalities in the adult population with Turner's syndrome. Doctors caring for these women need to be aware of and look for the potential problems. Appropriate long-term treatment should be commenced to help prevent the development of lipid, skeletal and thyroid abnormalities which may cause these patients major problems in the future.
