Turner's syndrome is due to total (45, X) or partial (mosaicism) loss of one X-chromosome.
The main features are short stature, ovarian dysgenesis with no estrogen production and
infertility. In addition to ear and hearing disorders, middle ear problems including
acute/serous otitis media and chronic middle ear disease are frequent. Sensorineural
hearing loss is often seen with a dip in the mid-frequencies and also an early high frequency
loss. In this study, middle-and inner-ear pathology was characterized using physiological …
