Partial Hydatidiform Mole with Alive Term IUGR Foetus

Preterm gestation along with partial hydatidiform mole and alive foetus.

Gestational trophoblastic disease encompasses a diverse group of lesion. If molar changes in the placenta are known along with an alive fetus then the situation is difficult to manage. We present successfully managed case of partial degeneration of placenta in molar pregnancy with an alive fetus at second stage of preterm labour.

Recurrent partial hydatidiform mole.

Hydatidiform moles are abnormal conceptions characterised by atypical hyperplastic trophoblasts and hydropic villi. Their incidence is approximately 1 in 1000 pregnancies. The recurrence risk of hydatidiform mole is approximately 1 in 60 in a subsequent pregnancy and 1 in 6.5 in the third pregnancy. In cases with recurrence, the majority of moles are of the same type as that in the preceding pr...

Twin pregnancy with complete hydatidiform mole and coexistent foetus.

Ultrasonographic signs of partial hydatidiform mole.

UNLABELLED This study aimed at investigating ultrasonographic features of partial hydatidiform mole to establish a proper diagnosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of 70 pregnancies which were divided into two groups: group I--35 pregnant women with a molar pregnancy diagnosed in the first trimester; group II--35 pregnant women with physiological pregnancy spontaneously a...

Hydatidiform mole: parental chromosome aberrations in partial and complete moles.

The relationship between parental constitutional chromosome abnormalities and the development of hydatidiform mole was evaluated in series from four institutions. Karyotype analysis was performed on blood samples from 237 patients with a pathological diagnosis of complete mole and 217 of their spouses. One patient was found to have a constitutional balanced translocation, t(11;18), while one sp...
