Background: Gestational Trophoblastic Disease (GTD) is a heterogeneous group of diseases that includes partial and complete hydatidiform mole, invasive choriocarcinoma placental site trophoblastic tumour. The study aimed to determine the clinical presentation management options outcome GTD in patients admitted tertiary hospital Bangladesh.
 Materials methods: This prospective observational...

Exponential interpolation is a problem in mathematics which can have very useful results in many areas. One area which is particularly of interest here is using exponential interpolation to model human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels in women with gestational trophoblastic disease as it has been previously reported that the hCG measurements in these women follow an exponential curve.

Uterine arteriovenous malformations may cause life-threatening abnormal genital bleeding in women at childbearing age. Transvaginal Doppler ultrasonography is a widely available, noninvasive and excellent diagnostic method. The authors report the case of a patient with history of gestational trophoblastic disease and multiple curettage procedures who developed uterine arteriovenous malformation...

There are various causes of hyperthyroidism in pregnancy such as Graves' disease and gestational thyrotoxicosis. The thyroid stimulation results from the excessive levels of circulating human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) produced by the trophoblastic tissue in both hydatidiform moles and choriocarcinoma. We present a pregnant patient with hydatidiform mole who presented with hyperthyroidism tha...

Gestational trophoblastic disease encompasses a diverse group of lesion. If molar changes in the placenta are known along with an alive fetus then the situation is difficult to manage. We present successfully managed case of partial degeneration of placenta in molar pregnancy with an alive fetus at second stage of preterm labour.

The treatment of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) represents one of the modern success stories in cancer medicine. Early diagnosis, effective treatments, monitoring of response with a series of serum human chorionic gonadotropin levels, and centralized care have all contributed to this success. Nevertheless, some patients relapse after initial chemotherapy. This review discusses the ro...
