Abstract excerpt
Hydatidiform moles (HMs) most often occur sporadically and are either diploid androgenetic or triploid. The very rare familial recurrent HMs (FRHMs) have been related to NLRP7 and C6orf221 mutations in the mother. FRHMs are most often diploid with both maternal and paternal origin of the molar genome. We have screened a cohort of 11 women with diploid HMs with biparental contributions to the molar genome with...
