AbstractTo understand the mechanisms leading to hydatidiform mole formation in patients with NLRP7 mutations, we used a combination of various approaches to characterize five products of conception, from two patients, shown by flow cytometry to contain non-diploid cells. We demonstrate that four of these conceptions are triploid and two of them originated from fertilization with more than one sperm. We show that three of these triploid conceptions fulfill the histopathological criteria of partial hydatidiform mole and one fulfills the histopathological criteria of spontaneous abortion. Our data demonstrate that some oocytes from one patient with NLRP7 mutations are not able to prevent polyspermic fertilization and highlight the importance of using several approaches to characterize the genetic complexity of molar tissues and reproductive wastage. Altogether, our previous and current data show the association of NLRP7 mutations with several types of hydatidiform moles and with triploid spontaneous abortions. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
