OBJECTIVE
To describe the clinical and histological features of a series of cases of placentas originally diagnosed as partial moles in which the final diagnosis was that of placental stem villous hydrops, mesenchymal dysplasia or Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome.
RESULTS
We searched a computerized
OBJECTIVE
To review the last 15 year experience of choriocarcinoma following a term gestation at the New England Trophoblastic Disease Center (NETDC) and compare these results to earlier data to determine any changes in the clinical presentation and outcome of this disease.
METHODS
Women with
We report a fetal autopsy case that was diagnosed with a mole coexistent with a live fetus at an early gestation and finally showed coexisting true hermaphroditism of 46,XX/46,XY mosaicism and partial hydatidiform mole, developing metastatic gestational trophoblastic tumors in the lungs of the
Abnormal trophoblastic proliferation is the hallmark of a spectrum of lesions constituting the gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. Rapid proliferation, infiltration, vascular invasion, hematogenous dissemination, and spontaneous regression are features of both normal and neoplastic trophoblast.
Cardiopulmonary dysfunction has been observed after the removal of benign hydatidiform mole. Of 60 cases reviewed with benign trophoblastic disease, five developed respiratory complications. Two patients developed pulmonary edema that progressed to adult respiratory distress syndrome. Autopsy of two
The majority of second-trimester partial moles are found in association with triploidy. Rarely are they associated with tetraploidy or other aneuploidies and, to our knowledge, this is the first reported case of the prenatal diagnosis of partial mole in a pregnancy presenting with trisomy. The
OBJECTIVE
To characterize patients admitted during the pregnancy-puerperal cycle for non-obstetric causes in the obstetric intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary hospital in northeastern Brazil.
METHODS
A descriptive study, analyzing the participants from a bidirectional cohort study was conducted
The authors reviewed all chest radiographs obtained for pregnant women at a university hospital over a 15-year period to determine the intrathoracic complications of pregnancy and diseases occurring during pregnancy. The characteristic physiologic changes seen on chest radiographs during normal
Hyperreactio luteinalis (HL) refers to moderate to marked cystic enlargement of the ovaries due to multiple benign theca lutein cysts and is most often associated with hydatidiform mole or choriocarcinoma. The cause of this condition is unknown, but is believed to be related to elevated levels of,
BACKGROUND
The occurrence of preeclampsia before the 20th week of gestation is rare and it has been associated with hydatidiform molar pregnancy.
OBJECTIVE
We describe a case of first trimester eclampsia which occurred in a patient with hydatidiform mole.
METHODS
Case report.
RESULTS
A 16-year-old
Hyperreactio luteinalis (HL) is a rare condition that is characterized by bilateral ovarian enlargement and multiple thin walled cysts. Hypersensitivity of the ovary to circulating human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is playing the main role in pathophysiology. HL observed in cases where there is
We have compared the clinical and histological features of 149 complete moles with 146 triploid partial moles and 107 diploid non-molar hydropic abortions initially registered as moles for human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) follow-up. Forty-one patients with complete moles, five with partial moles
We retrospectively analyzed 27 cases of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia treated by emergency surgery from 1985-1996 at PUMC hospital. Seventeen cases were diagnosed of choriocarcinoma and 10 were invasive mole. Sixteen out of 27 patients were subjected to hysterectomy because of uterine
Hyperreactio luteinalis is a rare, usually self-limited syndrome with bilaterally enlarged ovaries containing multiple theca lutein cysts. It is usually associated with gestational trophoblastic disease and/or pregnancies that have elevated maternal serum hCG levels. Hyperreactio luteinalis with
