Human chorionic gonadotrophin as an indicator of persistent gestational trophoblastic neoplasia

Background: Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) disease is excessive and inappropriate proliferation of trophoblast after termination of the pregnancy. Many attempts have been made to improve follow-up procedures, but no studies have evaluated Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG) as a post tre...
