A rare cause of acute breathlessness in a nulliparous female

Abstract

Dyspnea in a woman of reproductive age group is a common condition encountered in clinical practice. Neoplasms of the female genital tract may also present with dyspnea creating diagnostic dilemma. A detailed history and thorough evaluation helps to clinch the diagnosis in such cases. We report the case of a reproductive-aged nulliparous woman who presented with dyspnea having multiple pulmonary solid nodules diagnosed with invasive mole by histopathology.
