CHARGE association in two monozygous triplets

Int J Cardiol. 1989 Dec;25(3):339-41. doi: 10.1016/0167-5273(89)90225-8.

Abstract

In an unusual set of triplets, two monozygous girls presented with CHARGE association. Dissimilar surgical management of identical cardiovascular lesions has resulted in a disparate effect on their clinical state. Their case poses interesting questions concerning how CHARGE association may develop.
