There were analysed 61 cases of Turner's syndrome, in this group--48 cases with 45,X karyotype. Author confirmed, that mean birth weight of these children was lower (2920 g), than in healthy girls (3400 g), especially in cases with 45,X karyotype (2894 g). The 1st birth order in 45,X cases decreased birth weight of these children (mean 2693 g). The most retardation of motor development--3 months--in locomotion was observed. Between two genotype groups 45,X (mean 2894 g) and 45,X/46,XX (mean 3015 g) the difference was statistically significant.
