During pregnancy, female friends need to frequently go to the hospital for prenatal check ups, such as Tang screening, NT examination, and ultrasound, which are all very important examination items and must not be missed. If a woman has a molar pregnancy, it can be detected through ultrasound examination. So, what is a molar pregnancy?
Molar pregnancy refers to the symptom of proliferation of trophoblast cells in the placental villi of women after pregnancy, which can cause high edema of the stroma and form blisters of varying sizes. And the blisters will appear connected in clusters, like grapes, hence it is called a molar pregnancy, which is also known as a vesicular mass in medicine.
There are two types of molar pregnancy: complete molar pregnancy and partial molar pregnancy. When a molar pregnancy occurs, most fetuses will die. Even if there is no death, it is likely to be a malformed fetus. If it is found to be a molar during the inspection, timely measures need to be taken.
Because women who are pregnant with molar pregnancy have a large and soft uterus, it is easy to experience uterine perforation. Therefore, suction curettage should be used instead of curettage. Vacuum aspiration has the advantages of fast operation and less bleeding. When performing suction, it should be set to low negative pressure and a larger suction tube should be selected as much as possible to avoid uterine perforation and not affect normal operation due to blockage by molar pregnancy.
