UTHealth Turner Syndrome Research Registry

Description

The investigators will conduct genetic comparisons between Turner Syndrome (TS) patients with and without Bicuspid Aortic Valve (BAV) to identify causative agents of BAV in people with TS. The investigators will correlate the patterns and prevalence of structural heart defects in TS women with emerging molecular data to identify patients who are at high risk for cardiovascular complications
