SONOGRAPHY OF THE PARTIAL MOLAR PREGNANCY
Abstract
A case of partial mole was presented in a 30-year-old female patient by an ultrasonographic examination. The study was performed intervally from 9 to 19 weeks-gestation. It showed thickening of the placenta with detectable small cysts at 19 weeks-gestation. Ovarian corpus lutein cysts was noted at 9 weeks-gestation. The growth of the fetus was retarded. Oligohydramnios was present.
