| Abstrakt: | Eclampsia spectrum disorders are a set of serious complications of pregnancy that commonly present after 20 weeks of gestation. There is an association between molar pregnancy, a gestational trophoblastic disease resulting from abnormal fertilisation and gametogenesis, and eclampsia spectrum disorders which can result in manifestation of pre-eclamptic symptomatology earlier than 20 weeks of gestation. We report a case of a gravida 1 para 0 in her mid 20s at 16-weeks gestation presenting with partial hydatidiform mole who developed eclampsia, haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets syndrome and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. Ultrasound findings were consistent with molar pregnancy and pathology confirmed partial molar pregnancy with triploid 69, XYY karyotype. This case highlights the early onset potential of eclampsia spectrum disorders in molar pregnancies while suggesting screening such patients for hypertensive disorders.
