Fecundation and Gravidity- Choriocarcinoma

Latent Choriocarcinoma

Vulva choriocarcinoma

Choriocarcinoma vulva is an exceptional location of gestational trophoblastic tumors. We report the case of a female patient of 23 years who had vulvar mass, painful, sitting at the large right lip and measured five centimeters in diameter. Pelvic ultrasound was normal. Beta-h-CG (human chorionic gonadotrophin) quantitative plasma were highly increased. The staging. The biopsy of the mass objec...

Ovary: Choriocarcinoma

Note Choriocarcinoma of the ovary is a highly malignant ovarian tumor which is characterized pathologically by the presence of trophoblastic malignant cells, and biochemically by the production of the pregnancy hormone human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) in the absence of an ongoing pregnancy. Choriocarcinoma tends to be invasive and to metastasize early and widely through both the venous and l...

Gravidity and Parity Definitions (and their Implications in Risk Assessment)

For example, a woman who is described as 'gravida 2, para 2 (sometimes abbreviated to G2 P2) has had two pregnancies and two deliveries after 24 weeks, and a woman who is described as 'gravida 2, para 0' (G2 P0) has had two pregnancies, neither of which survived to a gestational age of 24 weeks. If they are both currently pregnant again, these women would have the obstetric résumé of G3 P2 and ...

The relationship between gravidity and parity and colorectal cancer risk.

OBJECTIVES The influence of hormonal changes caused by pregnancy has been well studied in relation to colorectal cancer risk, but the association remains undefined. The purpose of this investigation was to examine in a case-control study the relationship between differences in gravidity and parity and colorectal cancer risk and if the association varied by microsatellite instability (MSI), a fe...
