@#A 31-year-old lady with normal physical characteristics was found to have persistent high FSH and LH and was suspected possible premature ovarian failure after reported to have not normal menstrual cycle. Leucocytes were collected from patient’s fresh peripheral blood sample and Giemsa banding (G-banding) was done. All metaphases were captured and analysed using Cytovision software 4.5 and the final analysis show 47,XXX

A Case of Chorioretinal Coloboma in Triple X Syndrome

PURPOSE: To report the case of a child with triple X syndrome presenting with exotropia and chorioretinal coloboma. CASE SUMMARY: A one-year-old female infant presented with 35PD exotropia in the primary position. The patient had poor fixation of the right eye, and a fundus examination showed chorioretinal coloboma in the inferior region of her right eye. The patient also exhibited syndactyly of the right hand. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-defined 2 cm cyst in the right cerebellum. Upon chromosomal study, the patient's karyotype was found to be 47, XXX. CONCLUSIONS: When infants or children present with ophthalmologic findings such as strabismus and coloboma, systemic conditions and congenital problems should be considered.

A Case of Systemic Scleroderma in Triple X Syndrome / 대한류마티스학회지

Systemic scleroderma is a collagen-vascular disease of unknown etiology. Although the pathogenesis is poorly understood, disease progression involves the vasculature, the immune system and extracellular matrix deposition. systemic scleroderma occurs 3~8 times more frequently in women than men and pathogenesis of systemic scleroderma may be related to female X chromosome. but the role of X chromosome in autoimmunity has not been illustrated yet. Most recently reports, the disturbances in X chromosome and inactivation of X chromosome may be the cause of autoimmunity in abnormal sex chromosome syndrome. Also autoimmune diseases such as systemic scleroderma is increased in Turner's syndrome. the author had experienced a woman with systemic scleroderma who had been diagnosed to triple X syndrome due to infertility in the past. which was very rare case and not reported yet. So the author report a case of systemic scleroderma with triple X syndrome with literature review.

A Case of Triple X Syndrome

Since Jacob and associates in 1959 were the first to report a case of triple X syndrome associated with ovarian failure, the incidence of trisomy X in newborn population is estimated to be 1 in 1,000 live born female. Most of them have normal physical appearance and puberty. We report a case of a newborn with triple X syndrome confirmed by chromosomal study whose clinical features included left preauricular pit, broad nose, thin lip, anogenital anomaly. Echocardiography showed atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect.

Obsessive-compulsive Disorder in a Patient with 47,XXX, Triple X Syndrome / 신경정신의학

Triple X syndrome is a relatively rare sex chromosomal anomaly, and its association with psychopathology is not well understood. The authors report one case of obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD)with karyotype-confirmed triple X syndrome, 47,XXX. She had incomplete sexual development, seconddary amenorrhea and multiple obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed left occipital white matter hyperintensity lesion. The patient's multiple obsessive-compulsive symptoms were responded partially with fluoxetine and adjunctive buspirone treatment, however, her overall psychological functions were much improved. With the literature reviews, the authors suggest the possibility that a certain type of sex chromosome aneuploidy might be susceptible to obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorders(OCSDs)or OCD.
