We report a case of dilated cardiomyopathy in a patient with 46,X,del(Y)/45,X karyotype, mosaic Turner syndrome. A 45-year-old male was admitted to the hospital because of dyspnea. On physical examination, he was found to be short stature and sexual infantism. Echocardiography revealed severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction, all chamber dilatation, bicuspid aortic valve, annuloaortic ectasia and aortic dissection.
Chromosomal study revealed 46,X,del(Y)(q11.23)/45,X. An emphasis is put on the need of thorough examination of cardiovascular system, specialized on congenital heart disease including aortic dilatation with the risk of dissection, and early development of ischemic heart disease.
Regular monitering as well as adequate therapy in patients suffering from this genetically determined disorder is recommended

1Background: Despite abciximab (ReoPro®)-coated stent has inhibitory effect on coronary artery restenosis, long term clinical outcome is unknown. Methods: This study was a prospective, randomized trial to compare the effects of abciximab-coated stent, which was implanted for 95 patients, with those of control stent, which was implanted for 93 patients for de novo coronary lesions. We evaluated the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at two-year follow-up. Results: Although there were no significant differences in the incidences of cardiac death (0%
vs. 1.1%, p=0.3) and target vessel revascularization (16% vs. 21%, p=0.4) between both groups, there was a trends toward lower incidences of non-fatal myocardial infarction (0% vs. 2.3%, p=0.16) and total MACE (16% vs. 24%, p=0.19) in abciximab-coated stent group compared with control stent group. Moreover, stent thrombosis did not occur in abciximab-coated stent group. Six month intravascular ultrasound analysis showed that an increase of neointimal hyperplasia area was significantly smaller in abciximab-coated stent group compared with control stent group (2.0±1.6 mm2 vs. 3.4±1.7 mm2, p=0.001). Conclusions: There is a trend that abciximab-coated stents inhibit neointimal hyperplasia and had lower total MACE and no stent thrombosis at two-year follow-up.
