Topic : Gestational trophoblastic
disease (GTD)
Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a
heterogeneous spectrum of diseases with abnormal
trophoblastic proliferation ranging from benign to
malignant state. It has varying degree of spread
from local invasion to distant metastasis.

The cells that form gestational trophoblastic
tumours are called trophoblasts and come
from tissue that grows to form the placenta
during pregnancy.
There are several different types of GTD.
Hydatidiform moles are benign in most cases,
but sometimes may develop into invasive
moles, or, in rare cases, into choriocarcinoma,
which is likely to spread quickly, but which is
very sensitive to chemotherapy, and has a very
good prognosis.

Risk factors of GTD.
Race: Asians compared to
North Americans or
Europeans
Age: Extremes of age (<16
and >45)
Parity: Increasing parity
Diet: Risks of CHM is
increased when dietary
intake of animal fat, beta-
carotene or vitamin A is
less
Genetics: Autosomal
recessive disorder (familial
recurrent HM) chromosome
19q
Risk of recurrence is increased
up to 25% when there is
previous 2 or more molar
pregnancy
(CHM: complete hydatidiform
mole)
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Incidence of GTD
The incidence of GTN is about 1 in 5,000 pregnancies
in oriental countries and 1 in 50,000 in Europe and
North America. More than 50% occur after molar
pregnancy, about 25% after abortion and/or ectopic
pregnancy and a few after normal pregnancy. Non
metastatic (locally invasive) lesions develop in 15%
and metastatic lesions develop in about 4% of
patients after molar evacuation.
While GTD overwhelmingly affects women
of child-bearing age, it may rarely
occur in postmenopausal women.

1. HYDATIDIFORM MOLE—
MOLAR PREGNANCIA
Molar pregnancy is an abnormal form of
pregnancy in which a non-viable fertilized egg
implants in the uterus and will fail to come to
term. A molar pregnancy is a gestational
trophoblastic disease which grows into a mass
in the uterus that has swollen chorionic villi.
These villi grow in clusters that resemble
g r a p e s .
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
An hydatidiform mole is a pregnancy or conception
in which the placenta contains grape like
vesicles (small sac) that are usually visible
with the naked eyes
These vesicles are due to distention of the
chorionic villi by fluids
On microscopy there is hypertrophy of the
trophoblastic cells
NOTICE Hydatidiform mole will almost always end
as a spontaneous abortion
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Molar pregnancies are categorized as partial
moles or complete moles, with the word mole
being used to denote simply a clump of
growing tissue, or a growth.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
1.1. Complete mole
o An "empty" ovum (i.e. absent or inactivated
maternal chromosome) is fertilized by either a
haploid sperm that then duplicates or two
separate spermatozoa.
o Have a 46XX /46YY karyotype 4 and 8% have 46,xy
karyotype. These arise from dispermy i.e.
fertilization of the ‘empty’ ovum by two separate
haploid sperms
o There is absence of embryonic material
o Its diffuse in nature, Hyperplasia usually present to
variable degrees
o Uterine size large for dates10/18/2022
MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD
presentation
o Complete hydatidiform moles have a 2–4% risk of
developing into choriocarcinoma in Western
countries and 10–15% in Eastern countries and a
15% risk of becoming an invasive mole.
o About the theca lutein cysts, >25% develop
depending on the diagnostic modality
o About immuno staining its negative for P57
o No fetal parts
o Increased or elevated hCG
o All villi hydropin with no normal adjacent villi
o Risk of choriocarcinoma is 15%
o Post molar invasion and malignancy is 15% and
4% respectively
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Classic signs and symptoms a complete
mole.
1. Vaginal bleeding
2. Hyperemesis ( severe vomit)
3. Size inconsistent with gestational age( with no fetal
heart beating and fetal movement)
4. Preeclampsia
5. Theca lutein ovarian cysts
6. Hyperthyroidism signs and symptoms
Sometimes symptoms of hyperthyroidism are seen, due to the
extremely high levels of hCG, which can mimic the effects
of thyroid-stimulating hormone.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Differentials of complete molar
1. Hyperemesis gravidarum
2. Hypertension in pregnancy
3. Hyperthyroidism
4. Abortion
5. Multiple pregnancy
6. Polyhydramnios
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
1.2. Partial mole
o 90% of the time, they exhibit triploidy. The
additional haploid component is paternal
(diandry). An oocyte retains its female nucleus
o but is fertilized by two haploid sperms
 69 XXX, 69 XXY, rarely 69 XYY
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
o Embryonic material present
o Focal in nature, Hyperplasia mild and focal
o Small for the dates or norm
o About immuno staining there is a positive P57
o Development of theca lutein cysts is rare
o Post molar invasion and malignancy is <5%
o Mild to norm increase in hCG
o Fetal parts present
o Risk of choriocarcinoma 0.5%
o Normal adjacent villi may be present
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Signs and Symptoms of Partial
Mole
1. Vaginal bleeding
2. Absence of fetal heart tones
3. Uterine enlargement and preeclampsia is
reported in only 3% of patients.
4. Theca lutein cysts rare.
5. Hyperemesis is rare.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Diagnosis of hydatidiform mole
o Quantitative beta-HCG; Serum beta-hCG (raised
more than 100,000 i.u. per ml)
o CBC
o CXRAY
o Ultrasound is the criterion standard for
identifying both complete and partial molar
pregnancies. The classic image On ultrasound,
the mole resembles a bunch of grapes ("cluster
of grapes" or "honeycombed uterus" or
"snow-storm")
o definitive diagnosis requires histopathological
examination.
10/18/2022
MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
o The most common symptom of a mole is
vaginal bleeding during the first trimester
o however very often no signs of a problem
appear and the mole can only be diagnosed
by use of ultrasound scanning. (routine check)
o Occasionally, a uterus that is too large for the
stage of the pregnancy can be an indication.
NOTE: Vaginal bleeding does not always
indicate a problem!
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Management of a complete mole
oSuction dilation and curettage :
To remove benign hydatidiform moles
When the diagnosis of hydatidiform mole is established,
the molar pregnancy should be evacuated.
An oxytocic agent should be infused intravenously after
the start of evacuation and when moderate amount of
trophoblastic tissue has been removed to avoid risk of
dissemination of trophoblastic tissue into circulation
and continued for several hours to enhance uterine
contractility
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Suction curettage should be followed by gentle
sharp curettage to obtain tissue for histology
The procedure should be done in operation
theatre under GA or SA with blood available,
If the uterus is larger than 14 weeks one hand
should be placed on top of the fundus, uterus
should be massaged to stimulate uterine
contraction and reduce the risk perforation.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
oRemoval of the uterus (hysterectomy) :
used rarely to treat hydatidiform moles if
future pregnancy is no longer desired. If the
patient desires surgical sterilization, hysterectomy
may be performed with the mole in situ.
- Ovaries may be preserved at the time of surgery,
even though prominent theca lutein cysts are
present.
- Large ovarian cysts may be decompressed by
aspiration.
- Hysterectomy does not prevent metastasis, therefore
patient will still require follow-up with assessment of
hCG levels.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
oChemotherapy with a single-agent drug
Prophylactic (for prevention) chemotherapy at
the time of or immediately following molar
evacuation may be considered for the high-
risk patients( to prevent spread of disease )
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
High-risk postmolar trophoblastic
tumor
1. Pre-evacuation uterine size larger than expected
for gestational duration
2. Bilateral ovarian enlargement (> 9 cm theca
lutein cysts)
3. Age greater than 40 years
4. Very high hCG levels(>100,000 m IU/ml)
5. Medical complications of molar pregnancy such
as toxemia, hyperthyrodism and trophoblastic
embolization (villi come out of placenta )
6. repeat hydatidiform mole
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Follow-up
Patients with molar pregnancy are curative over 80% by
treatment of evacuation.
The follow-up after evacuation is key necessary
o uterine involution,
o Regression cystic ovarian enlargement (theca lutein
cysts)
o cessation of bleeding
o Quantitative serum hCG levels
should be obtained every 1-2 weeks until negative for
three consecutive determinations, Then monthly for 6
months, Followed by every 3 months for 1 years.
@Weekly to non-detectable levels (i.e.
<5MIu/ml) on 3 m .Then monthly for 6
months. Then bimonthly for 6 months
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Follow-up
o Physical examination to r/o metastatic disease
is equally important. Ask for headache, visual
disturbance, cough, difficult in breathing,
involution of the uterus
o Investigations; FBC, base line chest X-ray and
abdominal and pelvic US scan
o Contraception should be practiced during this
follow-up period for atleast 1 yr.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
NOTE: Avoid IUCD --- Risk of perforation
Avoid Depo---Irregular bleeding
At completion of follow-up pregnancy may be
undertaken
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
1. Hemorrhage
2. Sepsis
3. Perforation during Evacuation
4. Thyroid storm
5. Persistent GTD
Complications of molar pregnancy
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Persistent gestational trophoblastic
neoplasia (GTN)
Persistent GTN is evidenced by persistence of
trophoblastic activity following evacuation of
molar pregnancy. This is clinically diagnosed
when the patient presents with
(a) Irregular vaginal bleeding;
(b)Subinvolution of the uterus;
(c) Persistence of theca lutein cysts;
(d)Level of hCG either plateaus or re-elevates
after an initial fall.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
After molar evacuation serum β-hCG becomes
normal in about 7–9 weeks. Post molar GTN of
serious nature may be either invasive mole or
choriocarcinoma but GTN after nonmolar
pregnancy is always a choriocarcinoma.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
All patients with persistent GTT should undergo
a careful pre-treatment evaluation, include:-
1. Complete history and physical exam.
2. Serum h CG level.
3. LFT, RFT, Thyroid fn test.
4. Peripheral WBC & platelet counts.
- Metastatic work –up should include
CXR, CT-Scan
USS or CT-Scan of abdomen and pelvis
CT or MRS Scan of the head.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
HINT ON Theca lutein cyst
Theca lutein cyst is a type of bilateral functional
ovarian cyst filled with clear, straw-coloured
fluid.
To be classified a functional cyst, the mass must reach
a diameter of at least three centimetres.
These cysts result from exaggerated physiological
stimulation (hyperreactio luteinalis) and are usually
associated with markedly elevated levels of beta-
human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG). They
are thus associated with gestational trophoblastic
disease (molar pregnancy), diabetes mellitus,
alloimmunisation to Rh-D, and multiple gestations.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Women who smoke have a twofold increase for functional cysts.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
2. PLACENTAL SITE
TROPHOBLASTIC TUMOR
PSTT tumour arises from the trophoblasts of the
placental bed. Incidence is less than 1% of all
patients with GTN. 40–50% of these patients
develop metastases. Tumor cells infiltrate the
myometrium and grow between smooth-muscle
cells
Syncytiotrophoblast cells are generally
absent, instead intermediate
trophoblast cells are predominant.
β-hCG secretion is low but human placental
lactogen (hPL) is secreted and this is monitored
during the follow up. 10/18/2022
MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
The entity is not responsive to
chemotherapy. Hysterectomy is the
preferred treatment. Serial serum
hPL may be a reliable marker
and hPL is useful for immunohistochemical
staining toconfirm the diagnosis.
Tend to remain confined to the uterus,
metastasizing late in their course.
In contrast to other trophoblastic tumors,
placental site tumors are relatively
INSENSITIVE to chemotherapy.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Management of Non-metastatic
PGTD
Single agent is used. Methotrexate or
Actinomycin D.
For those beyond 40 yrs and /or have
completed their families or have
more than 4 children chemotherapy
followed by surgery on the 3rd day is
recommended.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
3. EPITHELIOID
TROPHOBLASTIC TUMOR
(ETT):
It is a variant of PSTT (WHO, 2003). Both are
relatively chemoresistant and recurrence rate
for the both are high (20–30%) despite
surgery or chemotherapy.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
4. INVASIVE GTN
(Chorioadenoma destruens)
Invasive mole comprises about 15% of all GTN.
The prominent features of this type of mole are
invasive and destructive potentialities. Invasive mole
shows abnormal penetration through the muscle
layers of the uterus.
The uterine wall may be perforated at multiple areas
showing purple, fungating growth with
massive intraperitoneal hemorrhage.
The neoplasm may invade the pelvic blood vessels and
metastasizes to vagina or distant sites as like those
in choriocarcinoma.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Diagnosis of invasive mole
On laparotomy:
1. Perforation of the uterus through which purple
fungating growth is visible
2. Hemoperitoneum.
Histology:
There is penetration of the uterine wall by the
hyperplasic trophoblastic cells which still retain
villus structures. There is no evidence of muscle
necrosis . The materials for uterine curettage are
often deceptive as the lesion may be deep inside
the myometrium.
Persistent high level of urinary or serum hCG
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
5. CHORIOCARCINOMA
A malignant form of GTD which can develop
from a hydatidiform mole or from
placental trophoblast cells
associated with a healthy fetus ,an
abortion or an ectopic pregnancy.
Characterized by abnormal trophoblastic
hyperplasia and anaplasia , absence of
chorionic villi
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Choriocarcinoma is a h i g h l y m a l i g n a n t
t u m o r arising from the chorionic epithelium
Is purely an epithelial tumor composed of anaplastic
syncytiotrophoblastic and cytotrophoblastic cells
Histologically – No villi.
Sheets of anaplastic trophoblastic cells on a
background of Hemorrhage and necrosis.
Occurs in about 5% of patients after molar pregnancy
evacuation
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
About 3–5% of all patients with molar
pregnancies develop choriocarcinoma.
Amongst all patients with choriocarcinoma,
around 50% develop following a hydatidiform
mole
Trophoblastic disease following a normal
pregnancy is either choriocarcinoma or PSTT
and not a benign or invasive mole.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Pathology
The primary site is usually anywhere in the
uterus. Rarely, it starts in the tube or ovary.
Ovarian choriocarcinoma (nongestational)
may also be associated with malignant
teratoma or dysgerminoma.
The lesion is usually localized nodular type. It
looks red, hemorrhagic, and necrotic. At
times, the lesion is diffuse involving the entire
endometrium.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Ovarian Enlargement due to’
Bilateral lutein cysts are present in about 30%.
These are due to excessive production of
chorionic gonadotropin.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Cause of choriocarcinoma
Choriocarcinoma of the placenta during
pregnancy is preceded by:
1. hydatidiform mole (50% of cases)
2. spontaneous abortion (20% of cases)
3. ectopic pregnancy (2% of cases)
4. normal term pregnancy (20–30% of cases)
5. hyperemesis gravidarum
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Signs and symptoms
1. increased quantitative chorionic gonadotropin
(the "pregnancy hormone") levels
2. vaginal bleeding
3. shortness of breath
4. haemoptysis (coughing up blood)
5. chest pain
6. chest X-ray shows multiple infiltrates of various
shapes in both lungs
7. can present with decreased thyroid-stimulating
hormone (TSH) due to hyperthyroidism.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Treatment of gestational
choriocarcinoma
Since gestational choriocarcinoma (which arises
from a hydatidiform mole) contains paternal
DNA (and thus paternal antigens), it is
exquisitely sensitive to chemotherapy. The
cure rates, even for metastatic gestational
choriocarcinoma, more than 90% when using
chemotherapy for invasive mole and
choriocarcinoma.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Medical management.
As of 2019, treatment with either single-agent
Methotrexate or Actinomycin-D is
recommended for low-risk disease,
while intense combination regimens including
EMACO (etoposide, Methotrexate,
Actinomycin D, cyclophosphamide and
vincristine (Oncovin) are recommended for
intermediate or high-risk disease
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
EMA-CO Chemotherapy for poor
Prognostic Disease
Etoposide(VP-16) 100mg/M2 IV daily×2 days
(over 30-45 minutes)
Methotrexate 100mg/M2
IV losding dose,
then 200mg/M2
over 12 hours day 1
Actinomycin D 0.5mg IV daily×2 days
Folinic acid
15mg IM or p.o. q 12 hours×4 starting 24
hours after starting methotrexate
Cyclophosphamide 600mg/M2 IV on day8
Oncovin (vincristine) 1mg/M2 IV on day8
(Repeat every 15 days as toxicity permits)
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Surgical management
Hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus)
can also be offered to patients > 40 years of
age or those for whom sterilisation is not an
obstacle. It may be required for those with
severe infection and uncontrolled bleeding.

Becoming pregnant again after GTD
Most women with GTD can become pregnant again
and can have children again.
In the past, it was seen as important not to get
pregnant straight away after a GTD. Specialists
recommended a waiting period of 6 months after
the hCG levels become normal. Recently, this
standpoint has been questioned. New medical data
suggest that a significantly shorter waiting period
after the hCG levels become normal is reasonable
for approximately 97% of the patients with
hydatidiform mole. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
GTD coexisting with a normal fetus,
also called "twin pregnancy"
In some very rare cases, a GTD can coexist with a
normal fetus. This is called a "twin pregnancy".
These cases should be managed only by
experienced clinics, after extensive consultation
with the patient. Because successful term if the
mother wishes, following appropriate counselling.
The probability of achieving a healthy baby is
approximately 40%, but there is a risk of
complications, e.g. pulmonary embolism and
preeclampsia
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Treatment summary on GTD
1. Nonmetastatic GTD
2. Low-Risk Metastatic GTD
3. High-Risk Metastatic GTD
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Treatment of Nonmetastatic GTD
1. Hysterectomy is advisable as initial treatment
in patients with Nonmetastatic GTD who no
longer wish to preserve fertility
2. This choice can reduce the number of course
and shorter duration of chemotherapy.
3. Adjusted single-agent chemotherapy at the
time of operation is indicated to eradicate
any occult metastases and reduce tumor
dissemination.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
4. Single-agent chemotherapy is the treatment
of choice for patients wishing to preserve
their fertility.
5. Methotrexate(MTX) and Actinomycin-D are
generally chemotherapy agents
6. Treatment is continued until three
consecutive normal hCG levels have been
obtained and two courses have been given
after the first normal hCG level.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Treatment of Low-Risk Metastatic
GTD
1. Single-agent chemotherapy with MTX or
Actinomycin-D is the treatment for patients
in this category
2. If resistance to sequential single-agent
chemotherapy develops, combination
chemotherapy would be taken
3. Approximately 10-15% of patients treated
with single-agent chemotherapy will require
combination chemotherapy with or without
surgery to achieve remission
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Treatment of High-Risk Metastatic
GTD
1. Multiagent chemotherapy with or without
adjuvant radiotherapy or surgery should be
the initial treatment for patients with high-
risk metastatic GTD
2. EMA-CO regimen formula is good choice for
high-risk metastatic GTD
3. Adjusted surgeries such as removing foci of
chemotherapy-resistant disease, controlling
hemorrhage may be the one of treatment
regimen
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Follow-up After Successful
Treatment
Quantitative serum hCG levels should be
obtained monthly for 6 months, every two
months for remainder of the first year, every 3
months during the second year
Contraception should be maintained for at least
1 year after the completion of chemotherapy.
Condom is the choice.
10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
Final Prognosis
Cure rates should approach 100% in
nonmetastatic and low-risk metastatic GTD
Intensive multimodality therapy has resulted in
cure rates of 80-90% in patients with high-risk
metastatic GTD

  • 1. M W E B A Z A VICTOR. J M B c h B 5 T H Y E A R ( O B G Y N ) Ugandan mwebazavictor1997@gmail.com Kampala international university western campus Jinja site light under the care of Jinja Regional Referral Hospital OBGYN dept GESTATIONAL TROPHOBLASTIC DISEASES Presentation TWO 1st/AUG/2022 @ 8:00AM Modulated and Mentored by Doctor petrus (gynaecology and obstetrics CONSULTANT) @ KIUWC
  • 2. Topic : Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a heterogeneous spectrum of diseases with abnormal trophoblastic proliferation ranging from benign to malignant state. It has varying degree of spread from local invasion to distant metastasis. S i m p l e r e c a p o n e m b r y o g e n e s i s f o r 5 t o 1 0 m i n u t e s u s i n g l a n g h m a n e m b r y o l o g y t e x t b o o k 8 t h e d i t i o n 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 3. The cells that form gestational trophoblastic tumours are called trophoblasts and come from tissue that grows to form the placenta during pregnancy. There are several different types of GTD. Hydatidiform moles are benign in most cases, but sometimes may develop into invasive moles, or, in rare cases, into choriocarcinoma, which is likely to spread quickly, but which is very sensitive to chemotherapy, and has a very good prognosis. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 4. Types of G.T.D one benign tumour, and four malignant tumours The benign tumour Hydatidiform mole The four malignant tumours 1. Invasive mole 2. Choriocarcinoma 3. Placental site trophoblastic tumour 4. Epithelioid trophoblastic tumour 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 5. Risk factors for Development of GTN 1. Advanced maternal age (>40 years) 2. b-hCG >100,000 IU/L 3. Increased uterine size 4. Bilateral ovarian enlargement (>8 cm) 5. USG—uterine invasion 6. Increased uterine vascularity (USG Doppler) 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 6. Classification of GTD (WHO). A. Benign trophoblastic lesions 1. Placental site nodule 2. Exaggerated placental reaction B. H ydatidiform moles (HM) 1. Complete hydatidiform mole 2. „ Partial hydatidiform moles C. Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia 1. „ Invasive mole 2. Choriocarcinoma 3. „ Placental site trophoblastic tumor 4. „ Epithelioid trophoblastic tumors 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 7. Risk factors of GTD. Race: Asians compared to North Americans or Europeans Age: Extremes of age (<16 and >45) Parity: Increasing parity Diet: Risks of CHM is increased when dietary intake of animal fat, beta- carotene or vitamin A is less Genetics: Autosomal recessive disorder (familial recurrent HM) chromosome 19q Risk of recurrence is increased up to 25% when there is previous 2 or more molar pregnancy (CHM: complete hydatidiform mole) 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 8. Incidence of GTD The incidence of GTN is about 1 in 5,000 pregnancies in oriental countries and 1 in 50,000 in Europe and North America. More than 50% occur after molar pregnancy, about 25% after abortion and/or ectopic pregnancy and a few after normal pregnancy. Non metastatic (locally invasive) lesions develop in 15% and metastatic lesions develop in about 4% of patients after molar evacuation. While GTD overwhelmingly affects women of child-bearing age, it may rarely occur in postmenopausal women. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 9. 1. HYDATIDIFORM MOLE— MOLAR PREGNANCIA Molar pregnancy is an abnormal form of pregnancy in which a non-viable fertilized egg implants in the uterus and will fail to come to term. A molar pregnancy is a gestational trophoblastic disease which grows into a mass in the uterus that has swollen chorionic villi. These villi grow in clusters that resemble g r a p e s . 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 10. An hydatidiform mole is a pregnancy or conception in which the placenta contains grape like vesicles (small sac) that are usually visible with the naked eyes These vesicles are due to distention of the chorionic villi by fluids On microscopy there is hypertrophy of the trophoblastic cells NOTICE Hydatidiform mole will almost always end as a spontaneous abortion 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 11. Molar pregnancies are categorized as partial moles or complete moles, with the word mole being used to denote simply a clump of growing tissue, or a growth. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 12. 1.1. Complete mole o An "empty" ovum (i.e. absent or inactivated maternal chromosome) is fertilized by either a haploid sperm that then duplicates or two separate spermatozoa. o Have a 46XX /46YY karyotype 4 and 8% have 46,xy karyotype. These arise from dispermy i.e. fertilization of the ‘empty’ ovum by two separate haploid sperms o There is absence of embryonic material o Its diffuse in nature, Hyperplasia usually present to variable degrees o Uterine size large for dates10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 13. o Complete hydatidiform moles have a 2–4% risk of developing into choriocarcinoma in Western countries and 10–15% in Eastern countries and a 15% risk of becoming an invasive mole. o About the theca lutein cysts, >25% develop depending on the diagnostic modality o About immuno staining its negative for P57 o No fetal parts o Increased or elevated hCG o All villi hydropin with no normal adjacent villi o Risk of choriocarcinoma is 15% o Post molar invasion and malignancy is 15% and 4% respectively 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 14. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 15. Classic signs and symptoms a complete mole. 1. Vaginal bleeding 2. Hyperemesis ( severe vomit) 3. Size inconsistent with gestational age( with no fetal heart beating and fetal movement) 4. Preeclampsia 5. Theca lutein ovarian cysts 6. Hyperthyroidism signs and symptoms Sometimes symptoms of hyperthyroidism are seen, due to the extremely high levels of hCG, which can mimic the effects of thyroid-stimulating hormone. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 16. Differentials of complete molar 1. Hyperemesis gravidarum 2. Hypertension in pregnancy 3. Hyperthyroidism 4. Abortion 5. Multiple pregnancy 6. Polyhydramnios 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 17. 1.2. Partial mole o 90% of the time, they exhibit triploidy. The additional haploid component is paternal (diandry). An oocyte retains its female nucleus o but is fertilized by two haploid sperms  69 XXX, 69 XXY, rarely 69 XYY 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 18. o Embryonic material present o Focal in nature, Hyperplasia mild and focal o Small for the dates or norm o About immuno staining there is a positive P57 o Development of theca lutein cysts is rare o Post molar invasion and malignancy is <5% o Mild to norm increase in hCG o Fetal parts present o Risk of choriocarcinoma 0.5% o Normal adjacent villi may be present 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 19. Signs and Symptoms of Partial Mole 1. Vaginal bleeding 2. Absence of fetal heart tones 3. Uterine enlargement and preeclampsia is reported in only 3% of patients. 4. Theca lutein cysts rare. 5. Hyperemesis is rare. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 20. Diagnosis of hydatidiform mole o Quantitative beta-HCG; Serum beta-hCG (raised more than 100,000 i.u. per ml) o CBC o CXRAY o Ultrasound is the criterion standard for identifying both complete and partial molar pregnancies. The classic image On ultrasound, the mole resembles a bunch of grapes ("cluster of grapes" or "honeycombed uterus" or "snow-storm") o definitive diagnosis requires histopathological examination. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 21. o The most common symptom of a mole is vaginal bleeding during the first trimester o however very often no signs of a problem appear and the mole can only be diagnosed by use of ultrasound scanning. (routine check) o Occasionally, a uterus that is too large for the stage of the pregnancy can be an indication. NOTE: Vaginal bleeding does not always indicate a problem! 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 22. Management of a complete mole oSuction dilation and curettage : To remove benign hydatidiform moles When the diagnosis of hydatidiform mole is established, the molar pregnancy should be evacuated. An oxytocic agent should be infused intravenously after the start of evacuation and when moderate amount of trophoblastic tissue has been removed to avoid risk of dissemination of trophoblastic tissue into circulation and continued for several hours to enhance uterine contractility 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 23. Suction curettage should be followed by gentle sharp curettage to obtain tissue for histology The procedure should be done in operation theatre under GA or SA with blood available, If the uterus is larger than 14 weeks one hand should be placed on top of the fundus, uterus should be massaged to stimulate uterine contraction and reduce the risk perforation. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 24. oRemoval of the uterus (hysterectomy) : used rarely to treat hydatidiform moles if future pregnancy is no longer desired. If the patient desires surgical sterilization, hysterectomy may be performed with the mole in situ. - Ovaries may be preserved at the time of surgery, even though prominent theca lutein cysts are present. - Large ovarian cysts may be decompressed by aspiration. - Hysterectomy does not prevent metastasis, therefore patient will still require follow-up with assessment of hCG levels. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 25. oChemotherapy with a single-agent drug Prophylactic (for prevention) chemotherapy at the time of or immediately following molar evacuation may be considered for the high- risk patients( to prevent spread of disease ) 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 26. High-risk postmolar trophoblastic tumor 1. Pre-evacuation uterine size larger than expected for gestational duration 2. Bilateral ovarian enlargement (> 9 cm theca lutein cysts) 3. Age greater than 40 years 4. Very high hCG levels(>100,000 m IU/ml) 5. Medical complications of molar pregnancy such as toxemia, hyperthyrodism and trophoblastic embolization (villi come out of placenta ) 6. repeat hydatidiform mole 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 27. Follow-up Patients with molar pregnancy are curative over 80% by treatment of evacuation. The follow-up after evacuation is key necessary o uterine involution, o Regression cystic ovarian enlargement (theca lutein cysts) o cessation of bleeding o Quantitative serum hCG levels should be obtained every 1-2 weeks until negative for three consecutive determinations, Then monthly for 6 months, Followed by every 3 months for 1 years. @Weekly to non-detectable levels (i.e. <5MIu/ml) on 3 m .Then monthly for 6 months. Then bimonthly for 6 months 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 28. Follow-up o Physical examination to r/o metastatic disease is equally important. Ask for headache, visual disturbance, cough, difficult in breathing, involution of the uterus o Investigations; FBC, base line chest X-ray and abdominal and pelvic US scan o Contraception should be practiced during this follow-up period for atleast 1 yr. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 29. NOTE: Avoid IUCD --- Risk of perforation Avoid Depo---Irregular bleeding At completion of follow-up pregnancy may be undertaken 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 30. 1. Hemorrhage 2. Sepsis 3. Perforation during Evacuation 4. Thyroid storm 5. Persistent GTD Complications of molar pregnancy 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 31. Persistent gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) Persistent GTN is evidenced by persistence of trophoblastic activity following evacuation of molar pregnancy. This is clinically diagnosed when the patient presents with (a) Irregular vaginal bleeding; (b)Subinvolution of the uterus; (c) Persistence of theca lutein cysts; (d)Level of hCG either plateaus or re-elevates after an initial fall. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 32. After molar evacuation serum β-hCG becomes normal in about 7–9 weeks. Post molar GTN of serious nature may be either invasive mole or choriocarcinoma but GTN after nonmolar pregnancy is always a choriocarcinoma. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 33. All patients with persistent GTT should undergo a careful pre-treatment evaluation, include:- 1. Complete history and physical exam. 2. Serum h CG level. 3. LFT, RFT, Thyroid fn test. 4. Peripheral WBC & platelet counts. - Metastatic work –up should include CXR, CT-Scan USS or CT-Scan of abdomen and pelvis CT or MRS Scan of the head. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 34. HINT ON Theca lutein cyst Theca lutein cyst is a type of bilateral functional ovarian cyst filled with clear, straw-coloured fluid. To be classified a functional cyst, the mass must reach a diameter of at least three centimetres. These cysts result from exaggerated physiological stimulation (hyperreactio luteinalis) and are usually associated with markedly elevated levels of beta- human chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG). They are thus associated with gestational trophoblastic disease (molar pregnancy), diabetes mellitus, alloimmunisation to Rh-D, and multiple gestations. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 35. Women who smoke have a twofold increase for functional cysts. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 36. 2. PLACENTAL SITE TROPHOBLASTIC TUMOR PSTT tumour arises from the trophoblasts of the placental bed. Incidence is less than 1% of all patients with GTN. 40–50% of these patients develop metastases. Tumor cells infiltrate the myometrium and grow between smooth-muscle cells Syncytiotrophoblast cells are generally absent, instead intermediate trophoblast cells are predominant. β-hCG secretion is low but human placental lactogen (hPL) is secreted and this is monitored during the follow up. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 37. The entity is not responsive to chemotherapy. Hysterectomy is the preferred treatment. Serial serum hPL may be a reliable marker and hPL is useful for immunohistochemical staining toconfirm the diagnosis. Tend to remain confined to the uterus, metastasizing late in their course. In contrast to other trophoblastic tumors, placental site tumors are relatively INSENSITIVE to chemotherapy. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 38. Management of Non-metastatic PGTD Single agent is used. Methotrexate or Actinomycin D. For those beyond 40 yrs and /or have completed their families or have more than 4 children chemotherapy followed by surgery on the 3rd day is recommended. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 39. 3. EPITHELIOID TROPHOBLASTIC TUMOR (ETT): It is a variant of PSTT (WHO, 2003). Both are relatively chemoresistant and recurrence rate for the both are high (20–30%) despite surgery or chemotherapy. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 40. 4. INVASIVE GTN (Chorioadenoma destruens) Invasive mole comprises about 15% of all GTN. The prominent features of this type of mole are invasive and destructive potentialities. Invasive mole shows abnormal penetration through the muscle layers of the uterus. The uterine wall may be perforated at multiple areas showing purple, fungating growth with massive intraperitoneal hemorrhage. The neoplasm may invade the pelvic blood vessels and metastasizes to vagina or distant sites as like those in choriocarcinoma. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 41. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 42. Diagnosis of invasive mole On laparotomy: 1. Perforation of the uterus through which purple fungating growth is visible 2. Hemoperitoneum. Histology: There is penetration of the uterine wall by the hyperplasic trophoblastic cells which still retain villus structures. There is no evidence of muscle necrosis . The materials for uterine curettage are often deceptive as the lesion may be deep inside the myometrium. Persistent high level of urinary or serum hCG 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 43. 5. CHORIOCARCINOMA A malignant form of GTD which can develop from a hydatidiform mole or from placental trophoblast cells associated with a healthy fetus ,an abortion or an ectopic pregnancy. Characterized by abnormal trophoblastic hyperplasia and anaplasia , absence of chorionic villi 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 44. Choriocarcinoma is a h i g h l y m a l i g n a n t t u m o r arising from the chorionic epithelium Is purely an epithelial tumor composed of anaplastic syncytiotrophoblastic and cytotrophoblastic cells Histologically – No villi. Sheets of anaplastic trophoblastic cells on a background of Hemorrhage and necrosis. Occurs in about 5% of patients after molar pregnancy evacuation 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 45. About 3–5% of all patients with molar pregnancies develop choriocarcinoma. Amongst all patients with choriocarcinoma, around 50% develop following a hydatidiform mole Trophoblastic disease following a normal pregnancy is either choriocarcinoma or PSTT and not a benign or invasive mole. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 46. Pathology The primary site is usually anywhere in the uterus. Rarely, it starts in the tube or ovary. Ovarian choriocarcinoma (nongestational) may also be associated with malignant teratoma or dysgerminoma. The lesion is usually localized nodular type. It looks red, hemorrhagic, and necrotic. At times, the lesion is diffuse involving the entire endometrium. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 47. Ovarian Enlargement due to’ Bilateral lutein cysts are present in about 30%. These are due to excessive production of chorionic gonadotropin. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 48. Cause of choriocarcinoma Choriocarcinoma of the placenta during pregnancy is preceded by: 1. hydatidiform mole (50% of cases) 2. spontaneous abortion (20% of cases) 3. ectopic pregnancy (2% of cases) 4. normal term pregnancy (20–30% of cases) 5. hyperemesis gravidarum 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 49. Signs and symptoms 1. increased quantitative chorionic gonadotropin (the "pregnancy hormone") levels 2. vaginal bleeding 3. shortness of breath 4. haemoptysis (coughing up blood) 5. chest pain 6. chest X-ray shows multiple infiltrates of various shapes in both lungs 7. can present with decreased thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) due to hyperthyroidism. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 50. Treatment of gestational choriocarcinoma Since gestational choriocarcinoma (which arises from a hydatidiform mole) contains paternal DNA (and thus paternal antigens), it is exquisitely sensitive to chemotherapy. The cure rates, even for metastatic gestational choriocarcinoma, more than 90% when using chemotherapy for invasive mole and choriocarcinoma. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 51. Medical management. As of 2019, treatment with either single-agent Methotrexate or Actinomycin-D is recommended for low-risk disease, while intense combination regimens including EMACO (etoposide, Methotrexate, Actinomycin D, cyclophosphamide and vincristine (Oncovin) are recommended for intermediate or high-risk disease 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 52. EMA-CO Chemotherapy for poor Prognostic Disease Etoposide(VP-16) 100mg/M2 IV daily×2 days (over 30-45 minutes) Methotrexate 100mg/M2 IV losding dose, then 200mg/M2 over 12 hours day 1 Actinomycin D 0.5mg IV daily×2 days Folinic acid 15mg IM or p.o. q 12 hours×4 starting 24 hours after starting methotrexate Cyclophosphamide 600mg/M2 IV on day8 Oncovin (vincristine) 1mg/M2 IV on day8 (Repeat every 15 days as toxicity permits) 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 53. Surgical management Hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus) can also be offered to patients > 40 years of age or those for whom sterilisation is not an obstacle. It may be required for those with severe infection and uncontrolled bleeding. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 54. ANATOMICAL STAGING OF GTT (FIGO) 1. Stage I. [confirmed to uterus] 2. Stage II [extends outside uterus but limited to the pelvic structures (adnexae, vagina, broad ligaments)] 3.

FIGO Staging System for Gestational Trophoblastic Tumors Substages assigned for each stage as follows: A: No risk factors present B: One risk factor C: Both risk factors Risk factors used to assign substages: 1. Pretherapy serum hCG > 100,000 mlU/ml 2. Duration of disease >6 months 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 58. Becoming pregnant again after GTD Most women with GTD can become pregnant again and can have children again. In the past, it was seen as important not to get pregnant straight away after a GTD. Specialists recommended a waiting period of 6 months after the hCG levels become normal. Recently, this standpoint has been questioned. New medical data suggest that a significantly shorter waiting period after the hCG levels become normal is reasonable for approximately 97% of the patients with hydatidiform mole. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 59. GTD coexisting with a normal fetus, also called "twin pregnancy" In some very rare cases, a GTD can coexist with a normal fetus. This is called a "twin pregnancy". These cases should be managed only by experienced clinics, after extensive consultation with the patient. Because successful term if the mother wishes, following appropriate counselling. The probability of achieving a healthy baby is approximately 40%, but there is a risk of complications, e.g. pulmonary embolism and preeclampsia 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 60. Treatment summary on GTD 1. Nonmetastatic GTD 2. Low-Risk Metastatic GTD 3. High-Risk Metastatic GTD 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 61. Treatment of Nonmetastatic GTD 1. Hysterectomy is advisable as initial treatment in patients with Nonmetastatic GTD who no longer wish to preserve fertility 2. This choice can reduce the number of course and shorter duration of chemotherapy. 3. Adjusted single-agent chemotherapy at the time of operation is indicated to eradicate any occult metastases and reduce tumor dissemination. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 62. 4. Single-agent chemotherapy is the treatment of choice for patients wishing to preserve their fertility. 5. Methotrexate(MTX) and Actinomycin-D are generally chemotherapy agents 6. Treatment is continued until three consecutive normal hCG levels have been obtained and two courses have been given after the first normal hCG level. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 63. Treatment of Low-Risk Metastatic GTD 1. Single-agent chemotherapy with MTX or Actinomycin-D is the treatment for patients in this category 2. If resistance to sequential single-agent chemotherapy develops, combination chemotherapy would be taken 3. Approximately 10-15% of patients treated with single-agent chemotherapy will require combination chemotherapy with or without surgery to achieve remission 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 64. Treatment of High-Risk Metastatic GTD 1. Multiagent chemotherapy with or without adjuvant radiotherapy or surgery should be the initial treatment for patients with high- risk metastatic GTD 2. EMA-CO regimen formula is good choice for high-risk metastatic GTD 3. Adjusted surgeries such as removing foci of chemotherapy-resistant disease, controlling hemorrhage may be the one of treatment regimen 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 65. Follow-up After Successful Treatment Quantitative serum hCG levels should be obtained monthly for 6 months, every two months for remainder of the first year, every 3 months during the second year Contraception should be maintained for at least 1 year after the completion of chemotherapy. Condom is the choice. 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
  • 66. Final Prognosis Cure rates should approach 100% in nonmetastatic and low-risk metastatic GTD Intensive multimodality therapy has resulted in cure rates of 80-90% in patients with high-risk metastatic GTD 10/18/2022 MWEBAZA VICTOR GTD presentation
