Diagnosis of hydatidiform moles using p57 immunohistochemistry and HER2 fluorescent in situ hybridization.
Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) for HER2 performed on paraffin-embedded tissue samples and immunohistochemical analysis for p57 may be useful ancillary studies to aid in the diagnosis and classification of hydatidiform moles (HMs). HER2 FISH was validated against 24 paraffin-embedded sections of HMs and hydropic abortions and showed an 85% concordance rate. A morphologic assessment bas...
متن کاملp57 kip2 immunohistochemistry: ancillary technique in hydatidiform moles diagnosis
Background Gestational trophoblastic disease is a group of benign and malignant entities, where the hydatidiform mole is the most common, and can be divided into complete hydatidiform mole and partial hydatidiform mole. However, the histological criteria are still questionable and also, histologic evaluation alone is prone to great interobserver variability. In this way, inmunohistochemical ana...
متن کاملTetraploidy in hydatidiform moles.
STUDY QUESTION How does tetraploidy develop in hydatidiform moles (HMs), and what is the frequency of the different origins? SUMMARY ANSWER Most molar pregnancies with tetraploid cells appear to be produced by somatic endoreduplications, while a minority originate from a tetraploid zygote. The frequency of zygotic tetraploidy was estimated to be 0.7%. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY The parental orig...

متن کاملSex chromatin of hydatidiform moles.
The placenta is a homograft which is tolerated by the host for an unusually long time. The hydatidiform mole may be said to be even more successful in this respect for it can survive longer and penetrate further in the host even in the absence of a viable foetus. Recent observations that a large number of hydatidiform moles are chromatin positive are of much interest, but so far the reported se...
