Description
Summary:Key Clinical Massage Preeclampsia is defined as elevation of blood pressure and any of the following severity criteria: proteinuria, thrombocytopenia, elevation of creatinine in the absence of another renal pathology, elevation of transaminases, pulmonary edema, or neurological symptoms. However, after 20 weeks of gestation in a previously normotensive patient, cases of preeclampsia associated with molar pregnancy have been described in patients at less than 20 weeks of gestation. A 26‐year‐old woman, at 14.1 weeks of gestation was admitted to the lower extremities with facial edema, holocranial headache, nausea, epigastralgia, phosphenes, and photophobia, with a double‐length uterine fundus for gestational age and ultrasonography. Obstetricians who showed images of snowflakes without fetuses and annexes had multiple thecal‐lutein cysts. Atypical preeclampsia was identified using the severity data for complete hydatidiform moles. Given the possibility of serious complications that may endanger the life of the maternal–fetal binomial, atypical forms of preeclampsia should be suspected. Abundant trophoblastic tissues in grape racemes and histologic view showing degradation of the trophoblastic tissue, dilatated cisterns, trophoblastic inclusions, corial villi, and decidual reaction, with the absence of embryonic tissue, typical of the complete moles.
