What Is Turner Syndrome?
4. Symptoms In Infants
The type and severity of the symptoms can vary from cases to case, and some cases may go unnoticed until the patient is an adult. When symptoms are apparent, they will often include physical features such as a broad chest, wide neck, and ears that are low set.
The patient will likely be smaller than average at birth, and they may also have swollen hands and feet. Their arms can point outwards at their elbows, and toenails and fingernails can be narrow and turn upwards. Short fingers and toes are other symptoms, as are a small lower jaw, low hairline at the back, and defects of the heart.
