Gestational trophoblastic diseases

International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2003
In 1991, FIGO added non-surgical-pathologic prognostic risk factors to the classic anatomical staging system. These include urinary hCG levels >100000mIU/ml and/or serum b-hCG >40000mIU/ml and the duration of an antecedent pregnancy being >6 months. Since gestational trophoblastic diseases (GTD) have a very high cure rate in virtually all patients, the

Gestational Trophoblastic Disease

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2000
Patients diagnosed with molar pregnancy are treated by either suction curettage or hysterectomy, depending on their desire to preserve fertility. We use single-agent chemotherapy, preferably methotrexate, to treat low- or moderate-risk persistent trophoblastic tumors. High-risk patients who have metastatic disease are treated primarily with combination
