There are two types of HM, ie, complete (CHM) and partial (PHM). Both CHM and PHM can recur; however, the recurrence of PHM is very scarce compared to CHM. In this report, we present a case of a 33-year-old woman with recurrent PHM for 7 times without any normal pregnancy in-between. PHM was determined by histology examination. The patient underwent suction curettage and was followed up with serial β-hCG levels. Recurrent PHM, although rare, is associated with an increased incidence of malignancy. A series of clinical and β-hCG evaluation should be warranted because of the possibility of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia development.Keywords: hydatidiform mole, pregnancy, partial hydatidiform mole, case report |
