Have the mom's chromosomes been run? The most frequent type of complete hydatidiform mole is a 46,XX homozygote formed by the fertilization of an empty ovum by a single haploid sperm that later duplicates its chromosomes to give a diploid tumor. High resolution chromosome mapping (a la Jorge Yunis), especially of X might be informative. There are sibships predisposed to this, though rare. An accurate diagnosis may provide clue to a cure: On Friday, February 12, 1999, Yu Mao wrote:

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
