title: [Cases of hydatidiform mole at the Nuevo Hospital Civil in Guadalajara].
abstract: Thirty nine patients with hydatiform mole with clinical, echosonographic and hormonal diagnosis, were analyzed, from March, 1991 to February 1993 at the Nuevo Hospital Civil de Guadalajara. Incidence was I out of 301 pregnancies; average age, 24.6 years; 35.8% were primigravidae; average amenorreha was 15.6 weeks and there were not complications in 84.6%. The most frequent symptoms were transvaginal bleeding, 92.3%; mole rests expulsion, 25.6% and hyperemesis, 23%. The uterine fundus was larger in 17 patients; smaller in 13; the same in 5 and there were no data for four cases. An uterine curettage was performed in 38 patients; there was hysterotomy performed also for important bleeding; and there were 11 patients transfused. The histopathologic results of hydatidiform mole were confirmed in 84.6%. Only 20% of the patients came back for a post-evacuation control treatment. These results suggest that the characteristics of mola pregnancy at the Nuevo Hospital Civil de Guadalajara are similar to what has been reported in the literature; with a delayed diagnosis and a poor follow up of cases.
