ABSTRACT

Over the years, health disparities in medicine have continued to grow, and dermatology has been especially impacted, given the relative shortage of dermatologists in comparison to patient needs. Novel and disruptive solutions may be required to help improve patient care. In 2013, Google Glass was introduced, which is a wearable head-mounted display. The device is analogous to having a computer connected to your eyeglasses with one of the lenses serving as the screen. The technology has already been introduced for various applications within the medical field. We reviewed the pros and cons of this technology, with specific focus on dermatologic care, and discussed how Google Glass could potentially address current dermatologic health disparities.

ABSTRACT

Molar pregnancy or a hydatidiform mole, also referred to as gestational trophoblastic disease, is an abnormal type of pregnancy, in which a potentially anomalous egg is abnormally fertilized resulting in a subsequently non-viable conceptus becoming an enlarged growth in the uterus with dangerous complications. These moles can occur as either complete or partial moles, each with its own unique features. In this article, we report a case of a pregnant woman who presented to her primary care doctor with the chief complaint of shortness of breath. Upon further questioning, she was found to have slight vaginal bleeding. Further workup of the unexplained bleeding revealed a small, yet concerning molar pregnancy, and led to our encounter with the patient on her operating day for a dilation and curettage. As these moles are somewhat rare occurrences, this case report aims to describe the condition, with a focus on management and outcomes.
