Long Term Follow-up of Bone Mineral Density in Hormone Treated Turner Syndrome
Long Term Follow-up of Bone Mineral Density in Hormone Treated Turner Syndrome

Turner Syndrome (TS) is associated with osteopenia and osteoporosis. Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and increased risk of fractures are present in many younger and middle-aged women with TS. The objective is therefore to describe longitudinal changes in BMD in TS.

The study is an observational follow-up study. Examinations at baseline, after 5 and 10 years.

Bone mineral density is measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and bone turnover by bone markers.

Main Outcome Measures: Bone mineral density (BMD; grams/ square centimetre) were measured at lumbar spine, hip and the non-dominant forearm.
