TI  - Twin anemia-polycythemia sequence with blood chimerism in monochorionic dizygotic 
      opposite-sex twins.

AB  - We report a case of twin anemia-polycythemia sequence with blood chimerism in 
      monochorionic dizygotic twins born to a 30-year-old woman who conceived via 
      ovulation induction. The neonates developed twin anemia-polycythemia sequence; 
      the female twin had anemia and the male had polycythemia. We detected blood 
      chimerism using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Twin 
      anemia-polycythemia sequence carries not only perinatal risks, but also genetic 
      and immunological implications due to blood chimerism. Although previous reports 
      have described twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome in monochorionic dizygotic 
      twins, we report the first case of twin anemia-polycythemia sequence in 
      monochorionic dizygotic twins.
