Turner Syndrome (TS) is a relatively common genetic syndrome in which a woman has a 45XO or 45XO/46XX mosaic karyotype. Although it is not associated with any psychiatric syndrome, several case reports in the literature describe a similar constellation of symptoms in TS that may represent a biologically-based entity. This article reviews existing case reports and seeks common characteristics among them, which may include mild psychosis with stress-precipitated onset, prominent mood features, and some features that may resemble organic disease.
特纳综合征(TS)是一种相对常见的遗传综合征,患病女性具有45XO或45XO/46XX嵌合核型。虽然它与任何精神综合征均无关联,但文献中的几例病例报告描述了特纳综合征中一组相似的症状群,这可能代表一种基于生物学的实体。本文回顾了现有的病例报告,并探寻其中的共同特征,这些特征可能包括应激诱发起病的轻度精神病、突出的情绪特征以及一些可能类似于器质性疾病的特征。
