Optic gliomata affecting twins with neurofibromatosis.

M J Crawford, J M Buckler.   

Abstract

Monozygotic twins with neurofibromatosis both showed accelerated growth in association with optic glioma. Endocrine abnormalities were similar, but only one of the two had precocious puberty. This identical presentation in twins supports the view that the site of tumour formation is determined during intra-uterine development.
