A well-circumscribed border with peripheral Doppler signal in sonographic image distinguishes epithelioid trophoblastic tumor from other gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. [PDF]
As epithelioid trophoblastic tumor (ETT) shares similar clinical features with other gestational trophoblastic neoplasms (GTNs), it is likely to be clinically misdiagnosed and subsequently treated in an improper way.

Progress of immunotherapies in gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. [PDF]
Different from other malignant gynecologic tumors, gestational trophoblastic neoplasms (GTNs) exhibit an exceptionally high cure rate primarily through chemotherapeutic interventions. However, there exists a small subset of refractory GTNs that do not respond to conventional chemotherapies.

Hypothesis on the possible relevance of the immunogenic cell death in the treatment of gestational trophoblastic neoplasms [PDF]
The genetic background and the antigenic landscape of cancer cells play a critical role in the response to immunotherapies. A high tumor antigenicity, together with an increased adjuvanticity potentially induced by a peculiar type of cell death, namely ...

Lack of a Y-Chromosomal Complement in the Majority of Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasms [PDF]
Gestational trophoblastic neoplasms (GTNs) are a rare group of neoplastic diseases composed of choriocarcinomas, placental site trophoblastic tumors (PSTTs) and epithelioid trophoblastic tumors (ETTs).

Immunohistochemistry of germ cell and trophoblastic neoplasms [PDF]
The immunoprofiles of 121 germ cell and trophoblastic neoplasms were defined, using a battery of antibodies against cytokeratin (CK), vimentin (VIM), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), S-100 protein, leukocyte common antigen (LCA), UCHL-1, LN-2, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), neuron-specific enolase (NSE ...

How and Why Do Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasms Overproduce Human Chorionic Gonadotropin?
From the published data, the present mini-review attempts to answer two fundamental questions about the gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. In addition, it extrapolates the findings to other cancers that produce small amounts of hCG and how a novel ...
