I understand what you mean, but beynod the appearance, there are important aspects of the medical history that often point to Turner syndrome. I am not sure if those were discussed in the interview. Detailed discussion of the syndrome is probably beynod the scope of this post.I have seen several cases of Turner syndrome in Latinas and the prevalance is about 1:2500. It is not that rare, and mild cases are likely missed.The chromosome test is relatively simple and missing the diagnosis on the basis that some indigenous women may share some characteristics could be disasterous since Turner's also carries a risk of cardiovascular defects.Please continue to purse your dream to be a doc. There is a huge need out there for more Latinos/latinas in medicine.Thanks,Claudio Palma, MD
