Concordant cerebral oligodendroglioma in identical twins.

N C Roelvink, W Kamphorst, D Lindhout, H Ponssen.   

Abstract

A case of concordant oligodendroglioma in monozygotic twins is reported. The twins were also concordant for uterine leiomyoma and one twin partner had fibroadenoma and lipoma of the breast and myelofibrosis. As very few cases of concordant glioma in monozygotic twins have been published and no such cases in dizygotic twins, a genetic influence in the aetiology of glioma can only be suggested.
