Twin pregnancy with a complete hydatidiform mole and a coexisting fetus (CHMCF) is an extremely rare occurrence, described only by a handful of published series and cases reports. The majority of the literature on CHMCF examines prenatal care and follow-up in relation to the increased risk of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). At present, few reports elaborate on the diagnostic process and differential diagnosis, especially in the context of recent molecular advances in risk stratification for GTN. Here, we describe the first known case of a CHMCF with gastroschisis with liveborn delivery at 35 weeks gestation. This report aims to review the pre- and postnatal differential diagnosis and discuss recent updates on the importance of ancillary studies in the diagnosis of gestational trophoblastic disease.
