Abstract
Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder due to an absent or abnormal X chromosome. The two most typical features are short stature and gonadal dysgenesis. There is a wide range of other phenotypic features, many of which are thought secondary to lymphedema during embryogenesis. Reviewed are common sequelae of lymphatic obstruction, as well as common tooth and skin findings.
