Abstract

The phenotypic variability of variant Turner syndrome is wide, ranging from characteristic clinical features to those that are hardly distinguishable from the general population. A 4-year-old girl presented with multiple brownish macules and patches on the trunk and upper extremities as well as axillary freckles. Exome sequencing and chromosomal microarray testing revealed a microdeletion at Xp22.33p22.11 leading to a diagnosis of Turner syndrome. Here we describe an unusual case of variant Turner syndrome with multiple café-au-lait spots.
