P57 and Molar pregnancyThe differential diagnosis between nonmolar products of conception (POC) and complete and incomplete moles is now aided by immunohistochemistry for p57 P57 is a paternally imprinted maternally expressed gene. Therefore, its expression is lacking in trophoblasts and stromal cells of complete moles, which do not have maternal genes. On the other hand, incomplete and nonmolar POCs show p57 expression. Immunohistochemistry for p57 is therefore the first test to distinguish between complete mole and nonmolar specimens or incomplete moles.Learn practically important pathology from current management point of view - Updates in Diagnostics matter for updates in Management - Learn the complete Pathology as per latest concepts and updates - Subscribe here today
