Aortic size measurement shows promise for predicting dissection in Turner syndrome

A 25-year study confirms that monitoring aortic diameter can help doctors identify which Turner syndrome patients face imminent risk of life-threatening aortic dissection. The finding could refine clinical guidelines and reduce preventable deaths in this population, with implications for how hospitals structure screening and follow-up protocols.
