Can be very atypical with areas of anaplasia

26
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Types of moles

Clinical course

A

Pt presents with

Spontaneous abortion

Picked up by US

27
Q

Gestational Choriocarcinoma

Come from 3 things

A

50% hydatiform moles

25% previous abortions

25% normal pregnancies

28

Twin-twin transfusion syndrome

Mostly in…

A

Monochorionic-monoamnionic placenta

29
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Hydatidiform Mole

Most likely to occur in…

A

Teen or 40-50s

30
Q

Toxemia of pregnancy

Clinical course

A

Starts after 32 wks

Hypertension, edema, proteinuria

Lead to headaches, visual disturbances, and shock

31
Q

Disorders of late pregnancy

Placenta Accreta

Possible sequel are

A

Postpartum hemorrrhage- can be life threatening and require hysterectomy

32
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Partial

Ass

A

Chorioca

Rare to have following chorio

33
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Types of moles

Partial

Presentation

A

With spontaneous abortion, will see focal areas of swollen chorionic villi

34
Q

Toxemia of pregnancy

Pathogenesis

Events

A

Placental ischemia

DIC

Hypertension

35
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Hydatidiform Mole

A

Cystic swelling of chorionic villi

Ass trophoblastic proliferation

36
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Invasive mole

A

Penetrates myometrium (may even perforate uterine wall

Locally destructive

Villi may embolize (liver, brain–not true mets)

37
Q

Toxemia of pregnancy

Placental morphology

A

Inc in infarctions

walls of vessels-fibrinoid necrosis

Thrombi and hemorrhage in liver kidney brain

38
Q

Placental infections and inflammations

Chorioamnionitis

A

Inflammation in fetal membranes

39
Q

Twin placenta

A

Two ova-dizygotic

One ova-monozygotic

40
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Hydatidiform Mole

Presentation

A

4th-5th month with uterus that measures larger than expected

If early US, then diagnosed early

41
Q

Disorders of late pregnancy

Placenta Accreta

Define

A

Adherence of placenta directly to myometrium due to partial or complete absence of decidua

42
Q

Disorders of late pregnancy

Placenta Accreta

Ass w

A

Placenta previa (placenta implants in lower uterine segment or cervix, causes antepartum bleeding and premature labor

43
Q

Gestational Choriocarcinoma

A

Malignant neoplasm of trophoblastic cells

44
Q

Differentiate mono and di placentas

A

Di-di= 2 chorionic fused, amnion on either side (dark line down center

Mono-di=amnion-no visible chorion

45
Q

Where fetal mother nutrient exchange takes place

A

Placental villi, where umbilical vessels branch and terminate

46
Q

Disorders of early pregnancy

Ectopic pregnancy

Define

A

Implantation of fetus in any site other than normal uterus

47
Q

Gestation Trophoblastic disease

Invasive mole

Clinical

A

Persistent elevation of HCG
