## Abstract Monozygotic (MZ), 46‐year‐old, male twins, carrying the same Huntington disease (HD) mutation, presented with a different clinical course. In one of the twins, the disease process started at the age of 32 years with chorea, dysarthria, and a depressed mood. Over 14 years, the disease pr

We report on male monozygotic twins with 22q11.2 deletion and discordant phenotypes. The twins had twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome. Twin 1, the smaller of the pair, had Tetralogy of Fallot, a characteristic facial appearance, swallowing dysfunction, anal atresia, short stature, and mental retardat

The use of the adjective "identical" rather than monozygotic leads to misunderstandings about the biology of monozygotic twinning. Most monozygotic twin pairs are not identical; there may be major discordance for birth weight, genetic disease, and congenital anomalies. These indicate that postzygoti
