  • Title: [Flow cytometry used to distinguish between complete and partial hydatidiform moles].
    Author: Guo L, Tang M, Ye S, Zhu L.
    Journal: Zhongguo Yi Xue Ke Xue Yuan Xue Bao; 1995 Feb; 17(1):65-7. PubMed ID: 7781132.
    Abstract:
    The nuclear ploidy of 14 placentas was determined by flow cytometry. All histologically classified complete moles (4 cases), hydropic villi (4 cases) and control placentas (3 cases) were diploid; whereas two of three histologically classified partial moles were triploid. The remaining case classified as partial mole was diploid, most likely a complete mole. It was concluded that DNA flow cytometric analysis offers an informative supplement to the histological interpretation of hydropic placentas.
