A 12 years old fernak case who was one of the twin sisters and the other 20 years old female case with growth deficiency and lack of menstrual period were referred to our laboratory for possible Turner Syndrome. The first case whose twin sister had normal growth and development with 46, XX karyotype, had a karyotype of 45,X146,X,i (Xq). The karyotype of second female case was 46,X,i (Xq).
