Diffwrence between hydaditiform mole and choriocarcinoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Benign vs cancer: Hydatidiform moles are pregnancies that went wrong and produce only spheres covered with trophoblast. Choriocarcinoma is cancer of trophoblast and can arise in a mole (common), a good prenancy (rare) or by itself in a testis or ovary. It is thankfully usually curable with today's treatments.
