title: Delayed diagnosis of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in a girl with Turner's syndrome.
abstract: Although increased risk for autoimmune diseases has been documented in Turner's syndrome (TS), the involvement of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) has rarely been reported. A detailed case description of JRA associated with Turner's syndrome is presented as the second such case report in the literature. The arthritis was diagnosed 8 years after its onset due to the confounding of its symptoms with those of TS.
