文摘葡萄胎与胎儿共存(hydatidiform mole and co-existing fetus,HMCF)是产科的罕见疾病,包括完全性葡萄胎与胎儿共存(complete hydatidiform mole with co-existing fetus,CHMCF)和部分性葡萄胎与胎儿共存(partial hydatidiform mole with co-existing fetus,PHMCF)。报道1例CHMCF病例通过妊娠期连续监测甲状腺功能、人绒毛膜促性腺激素和胎儿状况妊娠至37周,剖宫产分娩一活婴。CHMCF是一种临床罕见的高风险疾病,妊娠期应联合超声、磁共振成像和染色体核型分析仔细鉴别诊断,并在有产前诊断和妇科肿瘤中心的机构严密监测妊娠、分娩及产后随访。
