In the article, "Idiopathic Neonatal Hepatitis in One DNA Fingerprint Identical Twin'" by Vajro et al(Pediatrics.1992;2:329-330) there is an error unde"Case Reports." Instead of "At age 13 weeks the infant had acholic stools . . .," it should read "At age 3 weeks . . ." In addition, under "Discussion," the fourth paragraph should read, "Our case reports show that, as observed previously in EHBA also in INH the responsible initiating event may affect only one identical twin."

Idiopathic Neonatal Hepatitis

For the practicing pediatrician, the most commonly encountered causes of neonatal cholestasis are idiopathic neonatal hepatitis (INH) and extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA). However, despite extensive research, little improvement in our understanding of the etiology of INH and EHBA has occurred.1 It has been proposed that both of them may be part of a continuum of hepatobiliary disease caused by a common insult with a different predominant injury site.2 In this respect, it is interesting that, up to the present, several cases of discordance for EHBA in twins of various zygosity have been reported,3-8 whereas no data are available about either concordance or discordance for INH both in monozygotic and dizygotic twins.

Sympathetic Regulation

Takotsubo syndrome is an intriguing condition of often stress induced reversible cardiac dysfunction mimicking myocardial infarction, but without explanatory coronary obstructions. The pathogenesis of the syndrome is not yet fully understood, though altered sympathetic regulation or response to cardiac sympathetic stimuli is likely to be involved. We present a unique and clinically detailed report of identical twin sisters, who both developed Takotsubo syndrome in association to mental stress shortly after menopause, also covering a potential relapse of disease in one of the twins, supporting the theory of a genetic contribution to the development of the syndrome proposed by previous case reports and small genetic studies.
