A pair of monozygotic twins discordant for Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome is described. The probability of monozygosity is 0.995. This observation suggests that the syndrome is unlikely to be under single gene control and genetic counselling should be based on multifactorial inheritance.
本文描述了一对患维德曼-贝克威思综合征的单卵双胞胎,其中一人患病,另一人未患病。单卵双生的概率为0.995。这一观察结果表明,该综合征不太可能受单基因控制,遗传咨询应基于多因素遗传。
