[Anorexia nervosa in woman with Turner's syndrome].

The authors report a case of anorexia nervosa in woman with Turner's syndrome (45, X). In this case there was a low blood concentration of LH and FSH, and there was a lack of reaction to intravenous administration of 100 micrograms of GnRH. Partial syndrome of "empty sella" was found in a presented case by use of magnetic resonance imaging. There was a connection between the onset of anorexia nervosa and the tragic death of the patient's father. The inconsiderate start with HRT aggravated a course of a anorexia nervosa. The authors considered the plausible existence of relations between "empty sella" and the development of anorexia nervosa.
