Abstract Svrha ovog rada jest prikazati najčešće aneuploidije spolnih kromosoma i ukazati na njihovu dijagnostiku, etiologiju, epidemiologiju i patofiziologiju, najčešću kliničku prezentaciju i organizaciju cjeloživotne skrbi. Aneuploidije spolnih kromosoma su numerička kromosomska aberacija koja rezultira gubitkom jednog ili dobitkom jednog ili više spolnih kromosoma. Najčešće aneuploidije spolnih kromosoma su Klinefelter sindrom (47,XXY), Turner sindrom (45,X), Triplo X sindrom (47,XXX) i XYY sindrom (47,XYY). Inaktivacija X kromosoma dešava se kako bi se izjednačila doza gena između gena spolnih kromosoma i ostatka genoma. Međutim, određeni geni izbjegavaju inaktivaciju te njihovo prekomjerno izražavanje rezultira fenotipskim abnormalnostima Klinefelter i Triplo X sindroma, dok je izražavanje tih gena slabije u Turner sindromu zbog haploinsuficijencije.
Klinefelter sindrom ima veliku varijabilnost kliničke prezentacije, ali iznadprosječna visina je najčešća fenotipska prezentacija. Često imaju male testise i ginekomastiju. Postoji sklonost poteškoćama pri učenju a mnogi pokazuju nižu verbalnu inteligenciju. Djevojčice s Turner su nižeg rasta. Česte srčane anomalije su koarktacija aorte i bikuspidalni aortalni zalistak. Disgeneza gonada je česta pojava, onemogućujući početak puberteta. Kvocijent inteligencije je u rasponu normale, a postoje deficiti u vizualno-prostornim sposobnostima. Triplo X sindrom rijetko uzrokuje očite fizičke abnormalnosti. Djevojke s trostrukim X sindromom mogu imati nešto nižu inteligenciju i poteškoće u verbalnim vještinama. Dječaci sa sindromom XYY obično su viši od prosjeka te pokazuju IQ za 10 bodova niže od prosjeka. Liječenje je uglavnom simptomatsko, s posebnom pažnjom posvećenom komorbiditetima pacijenta i ranom otkrivanju bolesti. Supstitucijska terapija testosteronom koristi se kod Klinefelter sindroma, a estrogenom i hormonom rasta kod Turner sindroma.
Abstract (english) The purpose of this work is to present the most common sex chromosome aneuploidies and to discuss their diagnosis, etiology, epidemiology, and pathophysiology, as well as the most frequent clinical presentation and lifelong care organization. Aneuploidies of sex chromosomes are numerical chromosomal aberrations that result in the loss or gain of one or more sex chromosomes. The most common aneuploidies of sex chromosomes are Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY), Turner syndrome (45,X), Triple X syndrome (47,XXX), and XYY syndrome (47,XYY). X chromosome inactivation occurs to equalize gene dosage between sex chromosome genes and the rest of the genome. However, certain genes escape inactivation, and their overexpression results in phenotypic abnormalities in Klinefelter and Triple X syndromes, while expression of these genes is lower in Turner syndrome due to haploinsufficiency. Klinefelter syndrome exhibits a wide range of clinical presentations, but above-average height is the most common phenotype. They often have small testes and gynecomastia. There is a tendency for learning difficulties, and many show lower verbal intelligence. Turner girls have short stature. Common cardiac abnormalities include coarctation of the aorta and bicuspid aortic valve. Gonadal dysgenesis is common, preventing the onset of puberty. IQ ranges within the normal range, with deficits in visual-spatial abilities. Triple X syndrome rarely causes obvious physical abnormalities. Girls with Triple X syndrome may have slightly lower intelligence and difficulties in verbal skills. Boys with XYY syndrome are usually taller than average and exhibit an IQ 10 points lower than the average. Treatment is mainly symptomatic, with special attention given to the patient's comorbidities and early disease detection. Testosterone replacement therapy is used in Klinefelter syndrome, while estrogen and growth hormone therapy are used in Turner syndrome.
