Epidemiologic study on gestational trophoblastic diseases in Japan

CONCLUSION: The incidence of hydatidiform mole, low-risk GTN, high-risk GTN was 2.02 per 1,000 live births, 15.3 per 100,000 live births, and 3.4 per 100,000 live births, respectively. High-risk GTN was diagnosed more pathologically and later after the antecedent pregnancy than low-risk GTN. Following molar patients for five years is needed to improve the mortality of malignant GTN.PMID:36047375 | DOI:10.3802/jgo.2022.33.e72
