Twins with Down's syndrome, foramen of Morgagni hernias, and similar cardiac anomalies are described. While diaphragmatic hernias are not uncommon, the occurrence of this congenital defect in twins with very similar congenital anomalies raises the possibility that diaphragmatic hernias may result from an inheritable defect.
本文描述了患有唐氏综合征、莫尔加尼孔疝及类似心脏异常的双胞胎。虽然膈疝并不罕见,但在患有非常相似先天性异常的双胞胎中出现这种先天性缺陷,增加了膈疝可能由可遗传缺陷导致的可能性。
