background: gestational trophoblastic disease (gtd) defines a heterogenenous group of interrelated lesions that arise from the trophoblastic epithelium of the placenta. there are several histologically distinct types of gtd: hydatiform mole (complete or partial), persistant/invasive gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (gtn), choriocarcinoma and placenta site trophoblastic tumors. the aim of thi...

BACKGROUND Predictive factors of damage to the Fallopian tube may guide the treatment for patients with tubal pregnancy. The aim of this study was to assess the predictive value of the following parameters: gestational age, serum beta-hCG concentrations and ultrasound findings. METHODS A total of 105 patients with ampullary pregnancy undergoing salpingectomy were analysed. Trophoblastic invas...

Because thyroid disease is the second most common endocrine disease affecting women of reproductive age, obstetricians often care for patients who have been previously diagnosed with alterations in thyroid gland function. In addition, both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism may initially manifest during pregnancy. Obstetric conditions, such as gestational trophoblastic disease or hyperemesis gr...

BACKGROUND The incidence of hydatidiform mole (HM) differs among regions but has declined significantly over time. In Thailand, the initiation of universal health coverage in 2002 has resulted in a change of medical services countrywide. However, impacts of these policies on gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) cases in Thailand have not been reported. This study aimed to find the incidence ...

Choriocarcinoma is an aggressive trophoblastic neoplasm; its origin could be gestational or non-gestational.  Most are gestational, which means they arise from pregnancy, may abnormal normal. This review includes the published literature about choriocarcinoma's prevalence and risk factors. The researchers searched Science Direct, PubMed, EBSCO, Web of Science, Cochrane library, Scopus....

Background. Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a rare complication of pregnancy which is characterised by abnormal growth of the trophoblasts at the placental site. It is categorised into benign and malignant forms, which include hydatidiform moles (HMs) and gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN), respectively. A mixed choriocarcinoma (CC) and epithelioid trophoblastic tumour (ETT) i...
