Received Date: Apr 01, 2024 / Published Date: Apr 29, 2024
Abstract
Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder affecting females that can lead to various health issues. Despite advances in medical knowledge, many adult women with Turner syndrome remain undiagnosed or have unidentified health problems. This study aims to evaluate the utility of a standardized multidisciplinary assessment in identifying previously undiagnosed morbidity in this population. Adult women with Turner syndrome underwent a comprehensive multidisciplinary evaluation, including medical history review, physical examination, and specialized testing. The assessment was standardized to ensure consistency and thoroughness in identifying health issues. The standardized assessment revealed significant previously undiagnosed health issues in a substantial number of adult women with Turner syndrome. These included cardiovascular problems, metabolic abnormalities, and reproductive health issues among others. Early detection of these issues allows for timely intervention and management, potentially improving the quality of life for these individuals. A standardized multidisciplinary assessment is valuable in uncovering hidden health issues in adult women with Turner syndrome. Routine evaluations should be considered to ensure early detection and appropriate management of health problems in this population.
