We describe a girl, one of monozygotic (MZ) twins, with endocrine dysfunction with precocious puberty, cafe-au-lait nevi and polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD), McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS). After treatment with cyproterone acetate for 7 years the precocious puberty and excess growth improved but
In 1952, Goldenhar described a pair of monozygotic twins who were discordant for epibulbar dermoids, auricular appendages, malformations of the auricle, and hemifa-cia1 microsomia. Eighteen twin pairs have subsequently been described in which at least one member exhibited these manifestations. We re
## Abstract Evidence from previous studies has suggested that the inter‐individual differences in human brain‐wave patterns (EEG) are predominantly determined by genetic factors. In particular, the within‐pair EEG concordance of monozygotic (mz) twins was found to be typically as high as r = 0.81 a
