Popis: This case series is intended to study the earliest possible modes of diagnosis of invasive mole and its management. In this case series, three scenarios where invasive mole presenting as hypervascular retained products of conception, as acute abdomen due to a perforating lesion and as secondary postpartum hemorrhage following a full term normal vaginal delivery are described. Inferred from the case scenarios, ultrasound with color Doppler can be used as a rst investigation to reduce the time to diagnose interval. Management includes medical treatment with intravenous methotrexate and surgical treatment with a fertility-preserving resection or hysterectomy. Strict ß-HCG follow up is required to prevent missing the diagnosis of malignant transformation of mole.
