Gestational Trophoblastic Disease

Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a group of tumors defined by abnormal trophoblastic proliferation involving both benign and malignant entities. Histologically, GTD is divided into hydatidiform moles (containing villi) and other trophoblastic neoplasms (lacking villi). The nonmolar or malignant forms of GTD are called gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) and include the invasive mole, choriocarcinoma, epithelioid trophoblastic tumor (ETT), and placental-site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT). GTN can occur weeks or years following any pregnancy but occurs most commonly after a molar pregnancy. GTN can metastasize and be fatal if not treated. This activity reviews the causes and pathophysiology of GTD and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in its management. Participants gain insights into evidence-based diagnostic approaches, including histopathological evaluation and imaging modalities, to facilitate accurate and timely diagnosis. Challenges in treatment, including considerations for fertility preservation, chemotherapy regimens, emerging targeted therapies, and follow-up surveillance, are addressed. Clinicians gain insight into patient-centered care and the need for effective communication and collaboration among the interprofessional team to achieve optimal, comprehensive care for patients with GTD.
