摘要
Benign gestational trophoblastic disease generally occurs in women of reproductive age and is extremely rare in postmenopausal women. Here, the authors describe a case of complete hydatidiform mole in a 52-year-old postmenopausal woman with a history of lower abdominal bloating and vaginal bleeding. The paper summarizes the clinical manifestations, physiopathology, diagnosis, and treatment options for gestational trophoblastic disease in postmenopausal women. This study highlights that gestational trophoblastic disease can occur in postmenopausal women and that it is important to include it in the differential diagnosis of postmenopausal bleeding, to prevent delay in treatment.
