A case of double trisomy 16 and 22 in the second pregnancy loss is presented. DNA analyses (short tandem repeats genotyping) of miscarriage specimen was indicated because of ultrasound suspicion of partial hydatidiform mole. After the partial hydatidiform mole exclusion, further DNA analyses focused on the most common aneuploidies causing pregnancy loss, detected double trisomy 16 and 22 in the product of conception. The couple was referred to clinical genetic consultation and normal parental karyotypes were proved. For further explanatory purposes, archived material from the first pregnancy loss was analyzed and trisomy of chromosome 18 was detected. By comparison of allelic profiles of the mother, father, and both losses, the maternal origin of all aneuploidies was proven what can be attributed to frequent meiosis errors, probably due to advanced maternal age (44 years at the first loss and 45 years at the second loss). In conclusion, aneuploidies can mimic partial hydatidiform mole. Genetic analysis is helpful on the one hand to rule out partial hydatidiform mole and on the other hand to identify aneuploidies and in this way to determine the cause of miscarriage.
