Abstract

A girl with short stature is described in whom chromosomal analysis revealed a 45,X/46,XX mosaicism and in whom radiological investigations disclosed the diagnosis of X-linked spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda. This is the first report of the occurrence of X-linked spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda in a child with Turner syndrome.
