Keywords:
Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD), human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG), EpidemiologyAbstract
Background: Gestational trophoblastic diseases (GTD) are important and interesting part of gynecological oncology. Women diagnosed with GTD should be counseled that about 8% become malignant and GTN is a significant cause of morbidity, fertility loss and unfortunately mortality in young women. All form of GTD produce B- hCG and monitoring this hormone is a precise biomarker for screening, diagnosis, therapeutic response and follow up of patients. Objectives: To analyze and determine the types, complications, management and outcomes of gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) and those with irregular follow-up in Baghdad Teaching Hospital through an observational descriptive based approach. Study design: Observational descriptive study. Setting: Department of Maternity, Baghdad Teaching Hospital, Medical City, Baghdad, Iraq. Patients and methods: During the period from January 2013 to January 2014, (60) patients admitted to our hospital were diagnosed and registered to have GTD on the basis of histopathological report, were enrolled in this study.
