Abstract
We report the case of a spontaneous gestation in a patient affected of Turner syndrome (45XO/46XX). The patient received hormonal therapy during puberty, and presented with menarche at the age of 13 years and 8 months. The course of gestation is physiological except for threatened abortion and preterm labor. A caesarean section due to breech presentation was performed in week 38 in which a bicornuate uterus, rudimentary right ovary and a normal left ovary were observed and a healthy girl with normal cariotype was born.
