abstract: A five year retrospective analysis of 198 cases of hydatidiform mole recorded in three maternity hospitals in Singapore is presented. The incidence was 1 in 868 deliveries. The number of molar pregnancies in the first half of the year was higher than in the subsequent six months. The incidence of hydatidiform mole and its correlation with possible environmental factors is discussed.
