Cardiopulmonary dysfunction has been observed after the removal of benign hydatidiform mole. Of 60 cases reviewed with benign trophoblastic disease, five developed respiratory complications. Two patients developed pulmonary edema that progressed to adult respiratory distress syndrome. Autopsy of two patients showed no evidence of pulmonary trophoblastic emboli. Possible etiologies for the pulmonary findings, including trophoblastic emboli, hypervolemia, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and hyperthyroidism, are discussed.

In a patient with gestational trophoblastic disease midtrimester abortion was induced by intravenous application of prostaglandin F2 alpha. After evacuation of the uterus the patient developed a severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This syndrome has been described as resulting from trophoblastic emboli, hemorrhage shock, gestational osmotic imbalance or disseminated intravascular coagulation. Also an indirect side effect of prostaglandin has to be discussed. Patients who develop acute pulmonary complications after evacuation of a molar pregnancy appear to be at extremely high risk for persistent trophoblastic disease. The paper details the management and follow-up of this patient.

This review explores eight aspects of placentation in multiple mammalian. 1) Specialities of gestational trophoblastic disease. 2) Clinical significance of single umbilical artery (SUA) syndrome. 3) Pulmonary trophoblast embolism in pregnant chinchillas and DIC in pregnant giant panda. 4) Genetics status and placental behaviors during Japanese serow and related antelopes. 5) Specific living style and placentation of the Sloth and Proboscis monkey. 6) Similarities of placental structures between human and great apes. 7) Similarities of placental forms in elephants, manatees and rock hyrax with different living styles. 8) Specialities of placental pathology in Himalayan mountain people. CONCLUSIONS: It was taught that every mammalian species held on placental forms applied to different environmental life for their infants, even though their gestational lengths were different.
