Transition of Care from Childhood to Adulthood: Turner Syndrome.

Transition of Care from Childhood to Adulthood: Turner Syndrome. Endocr Dev. 2018 Jun 08;33:34-45 Authors: Conway G Abstract Girls with Turner syndrome (TS) require special consideration during transition from childhood to adult care. During the transition years, treatment for short stature will be completed and sexual development induced in parallel with the peer group. The timing of sexual development may have later repercussions with respect to psychosocial development and partnership status. Late presentation of TS, which is so common, can result in additional difficulties with the transition process. PMID: 29886498 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
