OBJECTIVE To investigate the slope of linear regression of postevacuation serum hCG as an independent risk factor for postmolar gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). DESIGN Multicenter retrospective cohort study. SETTING Academic referral health care centers. PATIENT(S) All subjects with confirmed hydatidiform mole and at least four measurements of β-hCG titer.

Trophoblastic neoplasms are a truly fascinating set of diseases that arise from a failed gestation. A molar pregnancy is an allograft of fetal tissue typically containing only paternal chromosomes that may invade the maternal decidua following a failed gestation that may have arisen up to decades earlier.

متن کاملLINE-1 Methylation Patterns as a Predictor of Postmolar Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia
OBJECTIVE To study the potential of long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1) methylation change in the prediction of postmolar gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). METHODS The LINE-1 methylation pattern from first trimester placenta, hydatidiform mole, and malignant trophoblast specimens were compared. Then, hydatidiform mole patients from 11999 to 2010 were classified into the following 2 ...
متن کاملEfficacy of combination therapy of Methotrexate and Vitamin A in low risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia treatment
