Tiivistelmä
A case of HLA identical twins with one affected by congenital heart block is reported. Both twins, as their mother, had more than 12-fold higher anti-Ro antibody titers compared to healthy controls, but no differences were observed between the affected and the healthy baby. It is possible that there is a third factor causing the manifestation of this disease.
