The elder sister complained of eyelid swelling and migratory lumps, while the younger sister was asymptomatic. Laboratory tests showed eosinophilia and elevated levels of inflammatory indicators in the two sisters. The brain MRI of the elder twin showed hyperintensity in the frontal lobe, suggesting cerebral hemorrhage. The chest CT image of the twins showed pulmonary involvement.
