Very rare: < 1/1.000.000. Probably autosomal recessive transmission.
Association of:
- ovarian dysgenesis in women (gonadal dysgenesis is not present in man): the diagnosis is done around the age of 20 years in case of primary amenorrhea (or, more rarely, secondary amenorrhea)
- sensorineural deafness of variable severity
And sometimes:
- neurological disorders: progressive cerebellar ataxia, dyspraxia, polyneuropathy, mental deficit
- short stature: < P3 in 50% of cases.
Differential diagnosis: Turner syndrome (XO).
Anesthetic implications:
