26. • Gestational trophoblastic disease
Vesiculaer mole
med-ed-online

27. CASE STUDY
• A 21 year old woman comes in for first
prenatal visit .Her LMP was 12 wks ago of
which she was certain .
• Upon examination you noted 20 wks
uterus ,therefore an US is performed and
revealed bilaterally enlarged adnexa and a
snowstorm pattern in the uterus. You
suspect a molar pregnancy what is your
next step ?
med-ed-online

28. You should order B-HCG in
serum
• The result comes back as 100,000
confirming your suspicion of a complete
mole
• Of course the definite diagnosis will not be
made until a D&C is performed
med-ed-online

29. 18-Clinical features that distinguish a
complete mole from a partiel mole are
A-Gestational age between 8-16 wks
B-B HCG level 100,000
C-Uterine size that is larger for gestational
age
D- Ultrasonographic features
E- all of the above
Ans:D
med-ed-online

30. 19-To optimally prepare for D&C you
should take the following steps except
A-type and cross match for blood
B- full operating room setting
C- suction cannula
D-General anathesia
E- A 22 gauge intravenous access
Ans:E
med-ed-online

31. 20-With respect to complete mole all are
true except
• A- Complete moles have 46XX karyotype
•
B-Maternal serum AFP levels are undetectable
in complete moles as there no fetal parts
•
C-Medical evacuation using prostaglandins and
oxytocin is the recommended treatment
•
D-During surgical evacuation, oxytocin infusion
shouldn’t be commenced before the uterus is
empty
med-ed-online
• ANS C

32. 21- All of the following are associated
with an increased risk of malignant
change in a woman with vesicular molar
PPREPREpregnancy except
• A-maternal age > 39years HSG
• B-woman with BG-A with a partner of
BG-O
TSH and prolactin level
• C-Complete mole more than partial
moles
• D- smoking
• Ans:D med-ed-online

33. Suction evacuation under general
anathesia was performed
How can you
councel this case
regarding
contraceptive
advice before the
next pregnancy
med-ed-online

34. 22-Which is true regarding
contraception after molar evacuation ?
A-Women should be advised not to conceive
until HCG levels have been normal for 12 mths
B-Use of the COCP after HCG levels have
returned to normal is associated with increased
need for chemotherapy
C-Use of IUDs in contraindicated until after HCG
levels have returned to normal
Ans:C
med-ed-online

35. 23-Which is true regarding molar
pregnancy
• A-women presenting with persistent vaginal bleeding
following evacuation of a complete molar pregnancy
should undergo further uterine evacuation
B- women should be advised not to become pregnant
until HCG levels have reverted to normal for 6/12 M
C-mifepristone is recommended for termination of a
partial molar pregnancy at 14wks gestation
• ANS B med-ed-online
