Abstract
We report a female with a de novo 46,X,der(X)t(X;Y) (p22;q12) transloc ation who presented with short stature, mild clinical features of Turn er syndrome and a Madelung deformity. It appears that some particular radiological and/or clinical skeletal features are common in females c arrying X-Y translocations. Based on the corresponding papers and on c linical findings of our patient we discuss the significance of Madelun g deformity encountered in X-Y translocations, dyschondrosteosis and T urner syndrome.
