N2  - Turner syndrome is one of the most frequent chromosomal disorders and has an increased associated morbidity. The clinical picture of Turner syndrome reveals itself gradually, not every patient exhibits the full clinical picture, but gonadal dysgenesis and short stature are invariably present. We describe the long-term outcomes in a cohort of 41 patients with Turner syndrome followed at the Regional Center for Medical Genetics Bihor. A retrospective study was performed using the medical records; epidemiological, clinical, laboratory, cytogenetic, and imaging data were analyzed. The frequency of congenital heart abnormalities and intellectual disability was increased in the study group, necessitating a more effective screening technique in our country, to identify all the cases with TS. Early diagnosis and hormonal treatment are critical for a patient's favorable prognosis in stature, bone metabolism, cardiovascular system, and quality of life. Patients with TS have higher rates of related morbidity, especially skeletal, kidney, ophthalmological, and dermatological and a multidisciplinary team is essential for the management of TS cases.
