-
A fleshy, insensible, at times, soft- at others, hard- mass; of variable and determinate size, which forms in the uterus, and is slightly united by vessels to that organ; from which its feeble vitality is derived. It has been conceived by some to be always owing to imperfect conception; but moles may form in the undoubted virgin. They seem to be owing to a morbid process; and certainly are genrally connected with conception. at times, they contain parts of the foetus: but commonly do not. at very different periods, in different women, the diseased mass is expelled from the uterus, with ordinary symptoms of abortion; and the case requires similar management. see,also,naevus, and conception (false)
