Abstract


Multiple pregnancies consisting of complete hydatidiform mole and coexisting fetuses are rare. Their incidence is increased due to the widespread use of ovulation induction. Triplet pregnancy with a coexisting hydatidiform mole is an extremely rare clinical condition. We report a case of 19 year old pregnant mother with 5 months amenorrhoea having triplet pregnancy with 2 live intrauterine fetuses and a complete hydatidiform mole.
