Matthew-Wood syndrome represents a rare genetic disorder characterized by diaphragmatic defects, pulmonary hypoplasia, micro- or anophthalmia, and cardiac defects. Most cases are lethal with very few infants living beyond a few years of life. Siblings with this diagnosis have been reported but never twins. In this article, we provided a review and discussion of this syndrome following its presentation in monochorionic, diamnionic twin females.
