RESUMO
RATIONALE: A pregnancy with incomplete mole is very rare case. Hydatidiform mole (HM) with live fetus is associated with a risk of a wide variety to maternal and fetal complications. The incidence of a normal live fetus and an incomplete mole such as the case we describe is extremely rare. PATIENT CONCERN: We report a case of multiparous 34-year-old at Culiacan Mexico woman with incomplete mole coexisting with normal fetus, pregnant 35.3 weeks who presented anemia grade II. DIAGNOSIS: The initial diagnosis of the mole was by ultrasound. INTERVENTIONS: KERR-type cesarean section and bilateral tubal occlusion. The newborn was morphologically normal, and she did not require intervention or treatment. OUTCOMES: The newborn was feminine, morphologically normal, weighing 2380 g and 47 cm, APGAR score 8 to 9, delivered prematurely, and there was a large placental plate. The blood loss on surgery was estimated at 1000 mL. Histopathology report of an incomplete hydatidiform mole, negative for malignancy. Histopathology diagnostic was confirmed by immunohistochemistry staining for p57KIP2. LESSONS: Although the incidence of this pregnancy is very rare, early recognition, diagnosis and divulge of the cases of medical community is very important for patient care.

Unilateral congenital pulmonary lymphangiectasia (CPL) is an extremely rare disease of the pulmo nary lymphatic vessels. OBJECTIVE: to present a case of CPL in a premature newborn. CLINICAL CASE: premature male newborn with severe respiratory failure at 2 hours of extrauterine life was treated with exogenous surfactant, catecholamines and high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV). Chest computed tomography (CT) scan showed bullae and air trapping of the left lung; the histopathological study showed cystic dilation of the bronchoalveolar lymphatic channels. The diagnosis of secondary unilateral CPL was made. The clinical course up to 19 months of age was normal and the chest CT scan showed few emphysematous bullae. CONCLUSIONS: CPL must be one of the differential diagnoses in neonates with unexplained respiratory distress. The prognosis will depend on the type of CPL and lung involvement.

La linfangiectasia pulmonar congénita (LPC) unilateral es una enfermedad extremadamente rara de los vasos linfáticos pulmonares. OBJETIVO: presentar un caso de LPC en un recién nacido prematuro. CASO CLÍNICO: recién nacido masculino, prematuro, con insuficiencia respiratoria severa a las 2 horas de vida extrauterina, recibió tratamiento con surfactante exógeno, catecolaminas y ventilación de alta frecuencia oscilatoria (VAFO). La tomografía axial computarizada (TAC) de tórax reveló bulas y atrapamiento de aire de pulmón izquierdo, el estudio histopatológico describió dilatación quística de los canales linfáticos broncoalveolares. Se diagnosticó LPC unilateral secundaria. La evolución clínica hasta los 19 meses de edad fue normal y la TAC de tórax mostró escasas bulas enfisematosas. CONCLUSIONES: La LPC debe ser uno de los diagnósticos diferenciales en neonatos con dificultad respiratoria inexplicable. El pronóstico dependerá del tipo de LPC y de la afectación pulmonar.
