Gestational trophoblastic disease with coexisting progresing pregnancy — pathogenesis, diagnostic strategy, imaging signs: a lecture
Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is an umbrella term for a group of benign and malignant trophoblastic tumors that develop during or after pregnancy. Despite the fact that trophoblastic tumors are quite rare, they represent an important problem in obstetrics. GTD can result in serious fetal and maternal complications, especially if it is associated with coexisting progressing pregnancy. This lecture covers general concepts related to trophoblastic disease, the role of ultrasound examination and MRI in the primary diagnosis of GTD during developing pregnancy and follow-up monitoring after treatment, as well as sonographic and magnetic resonance signs of this condition.
