Abstract
A total of 227 hydatidiform moles was recorded in Paraguay over a 10-year period (1960 to 1969). Using demographic studies, the annual incidence of hydatidiform moles was calculated as 0.229 per 1000 pregnancies or 1 per 4369 pregnancies, with the highest incidence occurring at the extremes of reproductive life.Keywords
