Abstract
Turner's syndrome (TS) is depicted as a total or partial absence of X chromosome, and occurs in approximately 1/2200 of live born females. Generally, mosaic patients are diagnosed following karyotype analysis due to recurrent pregnancy loss, repeated in vitro fertilization (IVF) failure, and a history of malformed babies. The purpose of this case report is to show that even a selection of normal karyotype embryos can result in abnormalities for those with mosaic TS. A 32-year old patient who underwent IVF after ICSI-PGD, and was diagnosed with 45X/46XX karyotype. At the 12-week scan, one of the fetuses had an upper limb hemimelia in one arm, and feticide was applied to that fetus. The patient delivered a healthy, 2980 g female baby at the thirty-eighth week. In mosaic TS pregnancies (even those obtained by ICSI-PGD), fetal anomaly risk is high. Therefore, careful prenatal scanning is needed for these pregnancies.
期刊介绍:
Organogenesis is a peer-reviewed journal, available in print and online, that publishes significant advances on all aspects of organ development. The journal covers organogenesis in all multi-cellular organisms and also includes research into tissue engineering, artificial organs and organ substitutes.
The overriding criteria for publication in Organogenesis are originality, scientific merit and general interest. The audience of the journal consists primarily of researchers and advanced students of anatomy, developmental biology and tissue engineering.
The emphasis of the journal is on experimental papers (full-length and brief communications), but it will also publish reviews, hypotheses and commentaries. The Editors encourage the submission of addenda, which are essentially auto-commentaries on significant research recently published elsewhere with additional insights, new interpretations or speculations on a relevant topic. If you have interesting data or an original hypothesis about organ development or artificial organs, please send a pre-submission inquiry to the Editor-in-Chief. You will normally receive a reply within days. All manuscripts will be subjected to peer review, and accepted manuscripts will be posted to the electronic site of the journal immediately and will appear in print at the earliest opportunity thereafter.
