Abstract: | A pair of monozygotic twins with Turner's syndrome was studied using combined cytogenetic techniques and a mos 45,X/46,X,r(Y) was demonstrated in both. One of the twins presented clitoral hypertrophy. Surgery was performed and uterus, bilateral Fallopian tubes, bilateral epididymis and bilateral streak gonads with a small nodule of testicular tissue containing numerous seminiferous tubules were found in both. |
