Case ReportsDiscrepancy in the diagnoses of hydatidiform mole by macroscopic and microscopic findings and the deoxyribonucleic acid fingerprint method.
Ten cases of hydatidiform mole were analyzed by the deoxyribonucleic acid fingerprint method. Deoxyribonucleic acid samples were prepared from hydatidiform mole tissue of hydatidiform mole and maternal and paternal blood. A case of partial hydatidiform mole diagnosed by histologic findings was revealed to be complete hydatidiform mole by deoxyribonucleic acid fingerprinting.
