The Journal of Pediatrics, 1977
A questionnaire was submitted to convention members of the Pacific Northwest Mothers of Twins Clubs. Of the 46 questionnaires returned by mothers of reputed monozygotic twins, seven reported at least one other set of monozygotic twins within the first three degrees of kinship to their twins.

Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1979
In a group of monozygotic twins, in which at least one of the pair squinted, strabismus was observed in both twins in only about half of the cases. Within the concordant group there was variation in the way in which the anomaly became manifest.

Hemivertebra in Monozygotic Twins
Spine, 2001A case report.To report and discuss a case of thoracic hemivertebra in monozygotic twins.The etiology of congenital scoliosis remains unclear. Both a genetic basis and environmental influences have been postulated. A few isolated reports of discordant spinal anomalies in twins exist.Clinical examination and plain radiograph evaluation were performed on

Surgical Pathology Clinics, 2013
This article discusses pathologies found in monozygotic twinning. Detailed information is provided regarding the development during monozygotic twin formation: embryo development, twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, acardiac twinning, vanishing twins, conjoined twins, and Beckwith-Weidmann syndrome twins.

Achalasia in monozygotic twins
Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 1982The familial occurrence of achalasia has been previously recorded and a genetic origin for the disease has been postulated. We present the first case of achalasia in monozygotic twins and suggest that concordance for the disease is consistent with a genetic factor in the etiology of achalasia.

Monozygotic Twinning as a Congenital Defect and Congenital Defects in Monozygotic Twins
Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy, 2009The process of monozygotic twinning in animals and humans is presented. In addition, congenital defects in monozygotic twins versus dizygotic twins and singletons is discussed. Overall, the rates of congenital anomalies are higher among whites as compared to blacks, males as compared to females, and multiples as compared to singletons.

Monozygotic Twins with Apert Syndrome
The Cleft Palate Craniofacial Journal, 2008Apert syndrome results almost exclusively from one of two point mutations (Ser252Trp or Pro253Arg) in fibroblast growth factor receptor 2. Most patients with Apert syndrome have this as an autosomal dominant abnormality. The majority of cases are sporadic, resulting from new mutations.

Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia in Monozygotic Twins
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1986ABSTRACTThis paper reports a unique familial occurrence of Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) in monozygotic twins. The determination of twin monozygosity has been performed by electrophoretic and immunological typing of genetic systems (erythrocyte blood groups, leucocyte antigens and serum protein polymorphism).

Rett syndrome in monozygotic twins
American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1988AbstractThe evolution of the Rett syndrome in 29‐year‐old twin girls is presented. Evidence for monozygosity is given together with a brief account of the problems these girls posed to their family in early childhood.
