Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is highly chemosensitive and has a high cure rate. Since the introduction of chemotherapy, reliable measurement of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels, and individualised risk-based therapy into the management of GTN, almost all low-risk and more than 80 % of high-risk GTN cases are curable. However, approximately 25 % of high-risk GTN developed r...

Gestational Trophoblastic Disease (GTD) in Latin America (LA) has a wide range of presentation and management, depending on socioeconomic, political and geographic variables [1,2,3]. Thus, while some referral centers have sophisticated methods for an early and accurate diagnosis and treatment, still there are a high number of patients admitted with a late Hydatidiform Mole (HM) or advanced Gest...

Gestational trophoblastic diseases (GTD) are a group of pregnancy-related disorders representing rare human tumours. They encompass premalignant disorders including complete (CHM), partial hydatidiform mole (PHM), exaggerated placental site (EPS), and placental-site nodule (PSN) as well as malignant disorders (also known as “gestational trophoblastic neoplasia [GTN]”) including invasive mole, c...

Introduction: Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) consists of group of disorders having pathology of abnormal trophoblastic proliferation ranging from hydatidiform mole to gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. Based on differences in morphology, histopathology, karyotype and clinical features, hydatidiform mole can be categorized into partial and complete moles. Molar pregnancy incidence var...

Background: The most common clinical types of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia are invasive hydatidiform mole and choriocarcinoma, which can be diagnosed without pathology, cured by chemotherapy. Epithelial tumor, a rare type neoplasia, does not exhibit precise manifestations upon auxiliary examinations. Therefore, since epithelial tumors prone to misdiagnoses missed diagnoses, their diagnos...

Gestational trophoblastic neoplasms are a group of fetal trophoblastic tumors including choriocarcinomas, epithelioid trophoblastic tumors (ETTs), and placental site trophoblastic tumors (PSTTs). Mixed gestational trophoblastic neoplasms are extremely rare. The existence of mixed gestational trophoblastic neoplasms that were composed of choriocarcinoma and/or PSTT and/or ETT was also reported. ...
