==Turner Syndrome - Ultrasound Test Showing Cystic Hygroma==

Ultrasound shows a large cystic mass posterior to the fetal neck. The mass is anechoic and contains a septation.
Cystic hygromas, which usually occur in the neck, are most likely due to abnormal lymphatic development. Approximately half of these fetuses have monosomy X (Turner syndrome), while 10-15% of cases have trisomy 18, 21 or 13. Cystic hygromas are midline, posterior, septated, cystic masses without associated bone defects. They frequently contain a characteristic appearing midline nuchal ligament.[http://brighamrad.harvard.edu/Cases/bwh/hcache/36/full.html]
