Abstract
Molar pregnancy is an abnormal form of pregnancy, characterized by the presence of a hydatidiform mole, an anomalous growth containing a nonviable embryo which implants and proliferates within the uterus. A hydatidiform mole has to be removed immediately because of the risk for developing into choriocarcinoma. In patients with hydatidiform mole, the preferred method of evacuation is suction dilatation and curettage. After molar evacuation, all patients should be monitored with serial hCG titers to diagnose and treat malignant sequelae promptly. We experienced a case of partial mole which was treated with chemotherapy after suction curettage.
Key Words: Partial mole, hCG, chemotherapy
