The case of a monozygotic twin, discordant for congenital hypothyroidism, is reported. The monozygosity of the twins was established by typing for 23 different hematogenetic marker gene-systems, with DNA fingerprint analysis. The sublingual thyroid in this patient was probably due to an intrauterine disorder of unknown origin which spared his brother.<BR>This case supports the hypothesis that environmental, rather than genetic factors, are the cause of ectopic thyroid dysgenesis.
