Placental Mesenchymal Dysplasia Clinically Diagnosed As Partial Hydatidiform Mole: Case Report

Abstract

Placental mesenchymal dysplasia is a rare placental abnormality. Placenta is found to be enlarged with cystic villi and dilated thick vascular structures. Importance of this abnormality is the clinical and morphological similarity to the partial hydatidiform mole and presentation with Beckwith- Wiedemann syndrome. Our case was diagnosed as partial hydatidiform mole in her rutin pregnancy controls. This is the 20. case in literature that had not any extra-placental abnormality. Key words: Placental mesenchymal dysplasia, Partial hydatidiform mole

Keywords

• Placental mesenchymal dysplasia, Partial hydatidiform mole

Klinikte Parsiyel Mol Hidatiform Tanısı Alan Plasental Mezenkimal Displazi: Olgu Sunumu

Öz

Plasental mezenkimal displazi nadir görülen bir plasenta anomalisidir. Plasenta normalden büyük olup kistik villuslar ve genişlemiş kalın duvarlı damarlar mevcuttur. Bu anomalinin önemi klinik ve patolojik olarak parsiyel mol hidatiforma benzemesi ve genellikle Beckwith- Wiedemann sendromu ile birliktelik göstermesidir. Doğum öncesi rutin takiplerinde parsiyel mol hidatiform tanısı alan plasental mezenkimal displazi olgusu, plasenta dışında anomalisi olmayan 20. vaka olması ve nadir görülmesi nedeniyle sunulmuştur. Anahtar kelimeler: Plasental mezenkimal displazi, Parsiyel hidatiform mol

Anahtar Kelimeler

• Plasental mezenkimal displazi, Parsiyel hidatiform mol
