Abstract

Turner syndrome is one of the most common sex chromosomal abnormalities. The incidence of Turner’s syndrome is higher in conception, but the majority of these conceptions result in mortality in intrauterine period. Alopecia areata meaning hair loss is a disease that can affect both sexes, and its prevalence is around 1-2% in the world. Alopecia universalis is an advanced form of alopecia areata and it is characterized by the complete loss of hair on the scalp and body. The association of Turner syndrome and alopecia universalis has been reported rarely in the literature. In this case report, a case with alopecia universalis and Turner syndrome whose karyotype is 45, X / 46, X, i (X) (q10) was discussed.

Özet

Turner sendromu en sık görülen cinsiyet kromozom anomalilerinden biridir. Turner sendromunun, konsepsiyondaki sıklığı yüksektir ancak bu konsepsiyonların çok büyük bir kısmı intrauterin dönemde mortalite ile sonuçlanmaktadır. Alopesi areata saç dökülmesi anlamına gelen her iki cinsiyeti de etkileyebilen bir hastalıktır ve dünya genelinde görülme sıklığı yaklaşık %1-2’dir. Alopesi areatanın bütün saç ve vücut kıllarındaki dökülmeler ile oluşan formu alopesi universalis olarak adlandırılır. Turner sendromu ve alopesi universalis birlikteliği literatürde nadir olarak bildirilmiştir. Bu olgu sunumunda Turner sendromu ve alopesi universalisin birlikte görüldüğü 45,X/46,X,i(X)(q10) karyotipli olgu tartışılmıştır.
