Cytogenetic investigation was carried out on 231 female patients referred for suspected sex chromosome abnormality. Cases were classified into five groups according to reason for referral and chromosome abnormality frequency was estimated. The overall frequency of abnormal karyotypes was 38.5%. The rate of positive identification of chromosome abnormality ranges from 0 in patients with secondary amenorrhoea to 80% in those with Turner phenotype. Our data demonstrate that the indications for referral of female patients with suspected sex chromosome abnormality are not only primary amenorrhoea alone or short stature and primary amenorrhoea without Turner stigmata, but also short stature of unknown etiology without any additional anomaly during childhood.
