Discordance of Monozygotic Twins for Thyroid Dysgenesis: Implications for Screening and for Molecular Pathophysiology

Since the advent of biochemical screening for congenital hypothyroidism, the majority of monozygotic twins reported with thyroid dysgenesis have been discordant, and most were missed on neonatal screening, presumably due to fetal blood mixing. We hypothesized that there may be bias leading to prefer...
