Identical twins with Alzheimer's disease.

C Kilpatrick1, R Burns, P C Blumbergs.   

Abstract

Genetically proven identical twin sisters with Alzheimer's disease are reported. Both sisters at the age of fifty years developed a dementing illness. Their mother and maternal grandmother developed at the same age a similar illness. It is suggested that in some cases of familial Alzheimer's disease the condition is inherited by a single mutant gene.
