Gestational trophoblastic diseases (GTD) comprise a heterogeneous group of disorders arising from genetic anomalies occurring during fertilization in twin pregnancies and often may be associated with assisted reproductive techniques. An exceedingly rare presentation of GTD is a twin pregnancy hydatidiform mole with a co-existing fetus, condition which may be an important cause of complications for the mother and the fetus. A 36-year-old woman (G2, P0, A1) underwent a friendly controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) followed by intrauterine insemination (IUI) for assisted reproductive purposes, resulting in a twin pregnancy initially characterized by two gestational sacs. However, one sac failed to progress and instead degenerated into molar trophoblastic disease, while the other sustained a normal fetus with regular growth. At 33 weeks gestation, the patient developed preeclampsia, necessitating delivery via cesarean section at a tertiary care facility. Reproductive-assisted procedures may be linked to cases of trophoblastic disease. Additionally, the presence of cystic lesions warrants a wide differential diagnosis, with magnetic resonance imaging serving as a valuable tool for accurate assessment and differentiation of structures.
妊娠滋养细胞疾病(GTD)是一组异质性疾病,由双胎妊娠受精期间发生的基因异常引起,且常与辅助生殖技术有关。GTD的一种极其罕见的表现是双胎妊娠葡萄胎合并存活胎儿,这种情况可能是母亲和胎儿发生并发症的重要原因。一名36岁女性(G2,P0,A1)为辅助生殖目的接受了温和控制性卵巢刺激(COS),随后进行了宫内人工授精(IUI),最初表现为双胎妊娠,有两个妊娠囊。然而,其中一个囊未能继续发育,反而退化为滋养细胞疾病,而另一个囊内的胎儿正常生长。妊娠33周时,患者出现子痫前期,需要在三级医疗机构行剖宫产分娩。辅助生殖程序可能与滋养细胞疾病病例有关。此外,囊性病变的存在需要进行广泛的鉴别诊断,磁共振成像作为一种有价值的工具,可用于准确评估和区分结构。
