Lectin histochemical analysis of uterine natural killer cells in normal, hydatidiform molar and invasive molar pregnancy

Coagulation and fibrinolysis in intact hydatidiform molar pregnancy.

Tests of coagulation, fibrinolysis, and platelet function were performed in 17 patients with intact molar pregnancies. Women with intact molar pregnancies had higher fibrinogen factor VIII, and fibrinogen degradation products, concentrations and lower prothrombin, factor X, plasminogen, and plasminogen activator concentrations than controls with normal pregnancies. They also had reduced platele...

Molar Pregnancy (Hydatidiform Moles) and Choriocarcinoma — Symptoms and Treatments

During pregnancy, it is possible for the tissue surrounding the embryo to degenerate. Such degeneration typically manifests itself in hydatidiform moles and choriocarcinoma. These tumors are difficult to diagnose and are associated with an increased level of beta hCG. Treatment involves the complete removal of the tumorous growth. The characteristics of the tumors are described in more detail b...

Compare clinical Presentation of complete Molar Pregnancy and partial Molar Pregnancy ( 2006-2018)

Objective: Molar pregnancy is classified as one of the diseases groups as a type of  Gestational Trophoblastic Disease (GTD) which is emerged from placenta. Hydatitiform moles are diagnosed one per 1500-2000 pregnancies in the United States. There seems to be a large variation in mole development and its frequency in Far East Asia is higher than western industrial. Mole is divided into two ty...
