Other variants of turner syndrome - what does this mean
Other variants of turner syndrome are caused by a partial or complete deletion of the x chromosome, or a structural abnormality in the x chromosome. in some cases, the missing genetic material can be inherited from a parent, while in others the genetic abnormality occurs spontaneously.
What happens during the disease - other variants of turner syndrome
Other variants of turner syndrome are caused by a variety of genetic changes, including partial deletions of the x chromosome, isochromosome xq, and mosaic turner syndrome, which is caused by a mixture of cells with normal and abnormal x chromosomes. these genetic changes can lead to a wide range of physical and developmental features, including short stature, ovarian dysfunction, and heart defects.
