Partial mole? E

maybe complete mole: B

We need more information to know this is complete or partial mole, this q is vague because both complete and partial mole is asociated with hydroptic changes of the villi.

agree with robin

  #5

????

  #6

agree with robin

  #7

yes robin,u are right.even i felt the same.But the answer given was E.

  #8

hydatidiform mole is due to uniparental disomy, so all chromosomes are paternal, therefore 46 XY answer c

if ur talking about complete mole its not 46 XY its 46 XX ...

  #10

sorry it could be both .. 46 xx, xy

A) 45 X0 is the genotip for Turner

B) 46xx:

----95% of mola finding is 46xx, complete mola, with all chromosomes paternal (an anucleat ovula meet an 23X sperm witch is dedublated)

----46xx can be the genotype for an normal female

C) 46XY is the genotype for an normal men

D)46XXY isn't a valid karyotype. Some Klinefelter's Syndromes can have this combination

E) 49XXY is partial mola

So i will go for E because B it's somehow confusing
