“…Although placental pathology reports are not consistent in all the studies, they have documented blood vessel collaterals that explained, in part, why the chimerism can be confined to the blood. This mechanism does not seem to be plausible in our case, since the male has a combination of cell lines in the blood and in the skin [Quintero et al, ; Souter et al, ; Williams et al, ; Aoki et al, ; Walker et al, ; Ekelund et al, ; Hackmon et al, ; Hawcutt et al, ; Chen et al, ; Kanda et al, ]. In true sex‐discordant MC/DZ twins with confined‐blood chimerism, the male's skin is only 46,XY, the female's is only 46,XX, and the blood of both should show a combination of 46,XY and 46,XX, reflecting the placental blood sharing.…”
