Abstract | We present an evaluation of the diagnosis, management and outcome of a pair of heterokaryotypic monozygotic dichorionic twins. The heterokaryotype was an incidental finding from an amniocentesis performed for prenatal diagnosis of β-thalassaemia major in a pair of dichorionic twins. Monozygocity was revealed by QF-PCR showing identical short tandem repeat markers on chromosomes 21, 18, 13, X and Y. The twins were heterokaryotypic for duplication chromosome 2q13-q23.3, as shown by array comparative genomic hybridization. Selective foeticide was performed. This case demonstrates that heterokaryotypic monozygotic dichorionic twins are a genetic possibility that does occur. Copyright © 2009 S. Karger AG. |
