We reported two cases of metastatic gestational trophoblastic neoplasms with bizarre pulmonary symptoms, one patient with small bowel metastasis, and two patients with brain metastasis presenting with unusual manifestations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Due to the characteristic of GTN, clinical manifestations can be varied like in the present patient who presented symptoms other than the typical symptoms of GTN, which can cause confusion in managing patients. [synapse.koreamed.org]

We present a case of a young woman who presented 30 days after evacuation of a molar pregnancy with invasive and metastatic GTN complicated by a uterine rupture and hemoperitoneum. [westjem.com]

For example, the section on noninvasive hydatidiform mole recommends the tests that should be routinely performed during workup, followed by surgery with either suction, dilation and curettage – preferably under ultrasound guidance – or hysterectomy for [mdedge.com]

Diagnostic workup includes complete bloodwork, HCG and CT chest/abdomen/pelvis /- CT or MR brain. [bccancer.bc.ca]

In borderline cases, the final diagnosis of invasion versus non-invasion is confirmed only by histopathology and hence all the evacuated moles need to undergo a complete pathological workup. [sonoworld.com]

Conclusions : Hysterectomy is a safe and effective treatment method, especially for GTNs which are resistant to conventional treatment. keywords: adjuvant hysterectomy; gestational trophoblastic neoplasia, surgical treatment references: Brewer JI, Eckman [termedia.pl]

Histologic grading or hydatidiform moles is relevant to their prognosis and biologic behavior. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis The overall recovery rate is around 99%. The prognosis is very closely related to the rapidity of diagnosis, the risk level of the tumor (low or high) and the suitability of treatment. [orpha.net]

Abstract Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a condition of uncertain etiology, comprised of a hydatidiform mole (complete and partial), invasive mole, choriocarcinoma, epithelioid trophoblastic tumour and placental site trophoblastic tumour. [signavitae.com]
