Abstract:
Partial molar pregnancy is a trophoblastic abnormality characterized by abnormal fertilization, leading to excessive trophoblastic proliferation with the presence of a non-viable embryo. The most common diagnostic circumstance is spontaneous miscarriage in the first trimester. Rarely, partial moles persist beyond the first trimester, potentially causing maternal and fetal complications and leading to diagnostic confusion. The genetic origin of partial hydatidiform moles (PHM) corresponds to a triploid conception, with an extra set of chromosomes of paternal origin. The coexistence of a fetus with a normal karyotype alongside a PHM is an exceptional situation. We report two rare cases of partial molar pregnancies: one with a living fetus at 11 weeks of amenorrhea and the other with a non-viable fetus at 10 weeks of amenorrhea. These observations highlight the importance of early diagnosis and prompt management to prevent complications, particularly persistent trophoblastic disease.
