Abstract

Triple X syndrome (47, XXX) is a numerical chromosomal alteration that affects 1/1.000 females, in which the individual is born with an extra X chromosome. Trisomy X is a relatively common but under- recognized chromosomal disorder associated with characteristic cognitive and behavioural features of varying severity. We report a 16-year old patient with Triple X syndrome and resistant schizophrenia. It is remarkable that genetic syndromes may be associated with resistance to treatment of psychiatric problems. Therefore in cases with treatment resistance, the genetic analysis should absolutely be examined.

Özet

Amaç: Triple X sendromu (47, XXX), kadınlarda ekstra bir X kromozomunun varlığı ile karakterize, 1/1.000 kişide bir görülen bir sendromdur. Trizomi X, değişken şiddette bilişsel ve davranışsal özelliklerle karakterize bir kromozomal hastalıktır. Bu olgu sunumunda; Triple X sendromlu ve dirençli şizofreni tanısı alan 16 yaşında bir vaka sunuyoruz. Genetik sendromların psikiyatrik problemlerin tedavisinde tedaviye dirençle ilişkili olabileceği ve bu nedenle tedaviye dirençli olgularda genetik analizlerin mutlaka yapılması gerektiği göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır.
