Breus' mole is diagnosed antenatally by ultrasound, where a thick multilobulated hematoma can be seen beneath the chorion. Occasionally, subchorionic thrombohematoma may later become intraplacental, making its diagnosis difficult.

[3] Identification of a chorionic bump in early first trimester pregnancy represents a significant risk factor for pregnancy loss, given a live birth rate of less than 50%. [4] The incidence rate for chorionic bump is estimated to be between 1.5 and 7 per 1000 ...
