Summary

100 women with karyotype verified TS, previously examined at 4 study visits during a 19-year period will be asked to participate in a 5th study visit. Healthy age-matched females will be included as controls in a ratio 2:1. The aim is to examine and quantify the cardiovascular and lymphatic system in women with TS. The investigators will study a possible causal mechanism between the known pathologic phenotype and alterations in these systems to understand, prevent or treat the life-threatening complications in TS.
