A useful approach to visualising the geographical distribution of web site hits is to geolocate the IP addresses of hits and plot them on a world map. In this paper we examine the efficacy of Google Earth for this purpose.

Trophoblastic diseases are mainly hydatidiform mole and choriocarcinoma, where the latter is usually the sequela of molar pregnancy and malignant systemic disease with general metastases destructing various tissues and organs till she die. High level urinary hCG, real-time B-mode and color Doppler imaging detect hydatidiform mole in early gestation, postmolar persistent trophoblastic disease is...

Placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT) is a highly rare form of gestational trophoblastic diseases that arise from intermediate trophoblastic cells.
