Medical termination with misoprostol appears to be a viable option, though the optimal dosage is yet to be defined and more studies are needed on the methods of termination in such pregnancies.

Prenatal Diagnosis of Twin Pregnancies with Complete Hydatidiform Mole and Coexistent Normal Fetus: A Series of 13 Cases

It was showed that abnormalities of CHMCF could be misdiagnosed as subchorionic hematoma in the early first trimester, and prenatal invasive procedures should be carefully evaluated depending on the associated US findings.

Uterine Rupture in Twin Pregnancy with Normal Fetus and Complete Hydatidiform Mole

Twin pregnancy with a complete hydatidiform mole and co-existent live fetus: two case reports and review of the literature

The chances of a live birth have been estimated between 30 and 35% and the risk of persistent trophoblastic disease is similar to singleton molar pregnancies in complete mole with coexisting fetus pregnancy, therefore, expectant management instead of termination of pregnancy can be suggested.

Twin pregnancy with Hydatidiform Mole and Co-existent Live Fetus: Lessons Learnt.

Though the general trend is to terminate pregnancy in twins with coexistent mole in anticipation of complications, under close surveillance, optimal outcomes can be achieved and monitoring of S β hCG, serial ultrasound for fetal growth, size of molar component, and theca lutein cysts can help to predict good patient outcomes.

Successful delivery of a twin pregnancy with complete hydatidiform mole and coexistent live fetus: a case report and review of literature

Complete Hydatidiform Mole with Co-existing Live Fetus: A Case Series

Assessment of maternal and fetal risk associated with complete hydatidiform mole with co-existing fetus (CHMF) and the feasibility for continuing such pregnancies found continuation of such a pregnancy is an acceptable option and expectant management instead of therapeutic abortion can be pursued after weighing the possibility of fetal survival against maternal risk.

All molar pregnancies should be evacuated promptly following a definitive diagnosis, and careful hCG monitoring is mandatory since it is the most reliable and sensitive method for the early detection of GTT.
