Descriptor mola hidatiforme
Entry term(s) embarazo molar
mola hidatídica
mola vesicular
Scope note: Hiperplasia trofoblástica asociada a una gestación normal. Se caracteriza por la proliferación de las VELLOSIDADES CORIÓNICAS y la elevación de la GONADOTROPINA CORIÓNICA humana. La mola hidatiforme o embarazo molar puede ser completa o parcial dependiendo de su morfología macroscópica, histopatología y cariotipo.

Scope note: Trophoblastic hyperplasia associated with normal gestation, or molar pregnancy. It is characterized by the swelling of the CHORIONIC VILLI and elevated human CHORIONIC GONADOTROPIN. Hydatidiform moles or molar pregnancy may be categorized as complete or partial based on their gross morphology, histopathology, and karyotype.

Hydatidiform Mole - Preferred
Concept UI M0010673
Scope note Trophoblastic hyperplasia associated with normal gestation, or molar pregnancy. It is characterized by the swelling of the CHORIONIC VILLI and elevated human CHORIONIC GONADOTROPIN.

Hydatidiform Mole, Complete - Narrower
Concept UI M0399004
Scope note Derived from the fertilization of an anuclear ovum by one or sometimes two haploid sperm. Its molar chromosomes derive entirely from the paternal origin. It has no identifiable embryonic or fetal tissue. The chorionic villi have generalized swelling and diffuse trophoblastic hyperplasia. Most complete moles (>90%) have a 46,XX karyotype and the rest 46,XY karyotype.

Concept UI M0399005
Scope note Derived from the fertilization of an apparently normal ovum by two sperm. Partial hydatidiform moles are characterized by focal chorionic villi swelling, focal trophoblastic hyperplasia, and identifiable fetal or embryonic tissue. Partial moles generally have a triploid karyotype.
