متن کاملInvasive mole of the uterus- a rare case diagnosed by ultrasound: a case report.
Gestational trophoblastic neoplasias (GTN) are rare tumours that constitute less than 1% of all gynecological malignancies. Invasive mole is a distinct subgroup of GTN, which if not diagnosed and treated early, can result in serious complications like uterine perforation and haemoperitoneum.
