The risk of a congenital malformation in the index twin increased significantly if the co\u2010twin had the congenital malformation, and the concordance rate was higher in monozygotic (MZ) than in dizygotic (DZ) twins (37.04 versus 16.77, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001). An increased risk of a congenital malformation in the presence of the same congenital malformation in the co\u2010twin was observed only for malformations of the nervous system, eye\/ear\/face\/neck, circulatory system, cleft lip\/palate, genital organs, urinary system and musculoskeletal system. Significantly higher concordance rates in MZ than in DZ twin pairs were observed only for the nervous system (40.00 versus 0.00, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001), circulatory system (32.97 versus 19.74, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.021), cleft lip\/palate (44.44 versus 0.00, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.017) and urinary system (22.22 versus 0.00, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.004), whereas significant differences were not found for the genital organs or musculoskeletal system.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Monozygotic twins had higher concordance rates than DZ twins only in specific organ systems.
