Abstract

AbstractComplete hydatidiform moles (CHMs) comprise a proliferative trophoblastic disorder and are known to be androgenetic and diploid. Androgenetic CHMs are classified as having monospermic and dispermic origins. Rarely, some CHMs have other genetic constitutions, such as biparental diploid or tetraploid. Previous studies have shown the possibility that androgenetic heterozygous CHMs have an additional chromosome with high frequency. This study aimed to comprehensively analyse the molecular karyotyping of androgenetic dispermic CHMs and the parental contribution of their additional chromosomes. Single-nucleotide polymorphism arrays were performed with the genomic DNA of CHMs and patients. The B allele frequency and selected B allele frequency plotting of CHM were visualised. Among the 31 dispermic CHMs, eight showed trisomy and one showed double trisomy; of the 10 additional chromosomes, seven were of maternal original and three were of paternal origin. In addition, three disomic chromosomes comprised one maternal and one paternal chromosome, although these should theoretically have had two paternal chromosomes in the case of androgenetic CHMs. The subclassification of heterozygous CHMs, with or without maternal contribution, is a new approach and could be a candidate indicator of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia risk.
