Abstract: Studies of prenatal fetuses with 45,X Turner syndrome have allowed for plausible hypotheses of how their pitting edema may lead to production of the associated congenital defects found in the condition. Hypoalbuminemia in these fetuses which are only about one-sixth the levels found in newborns and one-third the level in "control" fetuses may explain the edema. Malformation of the ear, hairline, neck webbing, nipples, coarctation, nails and horseshoe kidney can be related to embryonic and fetal deformation from edema.

It is a well documented fact that endometrial hyperplasia and adenocarcinoma may develop in women with Turner's syndrome who had received unopposed estrogen treatment (1), as well as in normal women under contraceptive medication with the sequential regime (2). The purpose of the present study was to characterize the possible changes in surface and glandular epithelium in these women who were treated with a sequential regime for a period of between three and eight years. The aim was to find organelle modifications which may lead to the understanding of the biology of an endometrium under exogenous hormone stimulation. Light microscopy examination of endometrial biopsies of nine patients disclosed a proliferative pattern; in two of these, there was focal hyperplasia. With the scanning electron microscope the surface epithelium in all biopsies showed secretory cells with microvilli alternating with non secretory ciliated cells. Regardless of the day of the cycle all biopsies disclosed a large number of secretory cells rich in microvilli (fig.l) with long and slender projections some of which were branching (fig. 2).
