Placental expression of VEGF is increased in pregnancies with hydatidiform mole: Possible association with developing very early onset preeclampsia

Hydatidiform mole is an abnormal pregnancy with over-proliferation of the placenta, which causes the dysfunction of placenta. Although more than 80% of hydatidiform moles are benign with good outcome, hydatidiform moles are associated with developing very early onset preeclampsia. However the associ...

Zusammenfassung:Hydatidiform mole is an abnormal pregnancy with over-proliferation of the placenta, which causes the dysfunction of placenta. Although more than 80% of hydatidiform moles are benign with good outcome, hydatidiform moles are associated with developing very early onset preeclampsia. However the association between hydatidiform mole and very early onset preeclampsia is unclear. Preeclampsia is associated with altered levels of angiogenic factors, like vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and soluble endoglin.
