Description

Xiaojin Luo and co-authors describe a 2026 review of 92 pregnancies where the fetus carried a mosaic form of Turner syndrome, a mix of cells with one X chromosome beside normal cells. Records spanned twelve years at one Shenzhen centre, drawn from near thirteen thousand amniocentesis cases in high-risk pregnancies. The team charted chromosome mixes, scan findings, choices, and child follow-up.

Most mixes paired the single-X line with a normal line, and scans spotted problems in only ten fetuses, chiefly heart flaws and growth lag. Two cases carried heavy multi-system flaws. Sixty-nine pregnancies ended by choice, while twenty babies were born live and followed. A few showed slow speech or movement, hearing loss, or short stature, all with abnormal cell shares in a middling band. The authors counsel against ending pregnancies for low mosaic shares and urge close growth checks after birth.
