Muziru Eunice Heritage and Kang Byeonghyeon

Gestational Trophoblastic Disease (GTD) encompasses a range of proliferative abnormalities of trophoblasts associated with pregnancy. It is classified histologically into benign (hydatidiform mole) and malignant forms (gestational trophoblastic neoplasia), with further categorization into non-metastatic and metastatic disease based on risk factors. The document details the characteristics, investigations, differential diagnoses, and immediate complications of complete hydatidiform moles, as well as treatment strategies for persistent GTD and choriocarcinoma.
