Turner's syndrome is a genetic disorder in females. Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital heart defect where the aorta is narrowed. It is commonly associated with Turner's syndrome. Pompe's disease is a metabolic disorder. Atrial septal defect is a hole in the heart's upper chambers but not as strongly linked to Turner's as coarctation. Transposition of the great vessels is a different heart malformation. Marfan's syndrome is a connective - tissue disorder.

Coarctation of the aorta
