Congenital biliary dilatation in dizygotic twins

Pediatric Surgery International, 2004
Congenital biliary dilatation (CBD) of different types was recently noted in dizygotic twins. Our cases suggest the possibility of hereditary involvement in CBD. On the other hand, CBD discordance in six sets of monozygotic twins has been reported, which would suggest that the occurrence of CBD is not compatible with single gene control, although ...

Sirenomelia and anencephaly in one of dizygotic twins

Teratology, 1986
AbstractThe combination of sirenomelia and anencephaly was observed in a stillborn dizygotic twin. A review of the literature revealed no other patients reported to have both conditions. Various explanations concerning the genesis of sirenomelia, and also the combination with anencephaly, are discussed.

Neural-tube defect in dizygotic twins

Pediatric Surgery International, 2002
Despite the strong association between twinning and neural-tube defects (NTD), concordance of twins with NTDs is very rare. A case of concordant NTDs in dizygotic twins is reported in view of its extreme rarity.

Life Expectancy of Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins

Acta geneticae medicae et gemellologiae: twin research, 1993
AbstractWhite male twins from the NAS-NRC twin sample, who were born in the U.S. between 1917 and 1927 and served in the military, are used to estimate variability in hazard functions for those twins who died during the period 1974-1990. Roughly the same number of MZ and DZ twins died during this period, but their death rates are similar.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in dizygotic twins

Neurology, 1977
A pair of dizygotic twins developed typical amyotrophic lateral sclerosis during adulthood. The concordance for this disease in these two patients of nonconsanguineous parentage with no family history of the disorder suggests the possibility of sublethal intrauterine injury to anterior horn cells.
