Abstract
Chronic infantile neurological cutaneous and articular (CINCA) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant autoinflammatory disease. We report the cases of monozygotic twins with CINCA syndrome whose predominant ocular manifestation was inflammatory rod-cone retinal dystrophy. Atypically, there were significant differences between twins in phenotype severity, suggestive of epigenetic differences and/or involvement of environmental factors.
