Rationale: Turner syndrome (TS) is a genetic disorder associated with abnormalities of the X chromosome related to ovarian function, but whether it is associated with endometrial abnormalities is still not clear.

Patient Concerns: We report the case of a 26-year-old Han Chinese woman with TS and Xp11.2 deletion, presenting with short final stature, ovarian hypofunction, unexplained cystic dilatation of the entire endometrium, and endometrial thickening.

Diagnoses: The patient was diagnosed with chromosome Xp11.2 deletion through cytogenetic analysis and ultrasonic and endometrial pathology.

Interventions: The patient was treated with conventional in vitro fertilization preimplantation genetic testing for 1 cycle.

Outcomes: Cytogenetic examination showed karyotype 45, X, del (X) del (p11, 2). Ultrasonic examination showed uneven endometrium thickness and a full-stage cystic dilation echo. After 1 cycle of in vitro fertilization treatment, 4 eggs were obtained without forming an available embryo.

Lessons: To our knowledge, the present case is the first report of a patient with TS with Xp deletions and ultrasound imaging endometrial abnormalities. Our findings expand the phenotypic spectrum of TS and may provide a reference for other clinicians.
