ABSTRACT

Las malformaciones nefrourológicas en el síndrome de Turner son frecuentes, por lo que su diagnóstico y seguimiento son importantes para disminuir la morbilidad de esta entidad. El objetivo de este trabajo retrospectivo fue analizar la patología nefrourológica en 72 niñas con síndrome de Turner atendidas entre 1989 y 2008 en el Hospital Garrahan. La prevalencia de patología nefrourológica fue del 33% (24 pacientes). Predominaron las anomalías del sistema urinario aisladas (10 pacientes, 42%) o asociadas a malformaciones renales (9 pacientes, 37%); 5 pacientes (21%) tuvieron anomalías estructurales renales aisladas. El 50% presentó complicaciones (8 infección urinaria, 2 proteinuria y 2 hipertensión arterial).


Nephrourologic malformations in Turner syndrome are frequent, its diagnosis and follow-up is important in order todiminish the morbidity of this disease. The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze the nephrourologic pathologyin 72 girls with Turner syndrome followed between 1989 and 2008 at Garrahan Hospital. The prevalence of nephrourologic involvement was 33% (24 patients). The most frequent findings were urinary system malformations, isolated (10 pacientes,42%) or associated with renal malformations (9 patients, 37%); 5 patients (21%) had only renal malformations. Fifty percent of patients developed complications (8 urinary tractinfection, 2 proteinuria and 2 arterial hypertension); however, none progressed to chronic renal failure. The prevalence of nephrourologic involvement was 33% and a half of these girls developed complications, our findings show the need of routine nephrological follow-up of girls with Turner syndrome and nephrourologic malformations.
