Patients with gestational trophoblastic disease do not requiremedical therapy. Since 20% of patients with malignant disease develops hidatiforma Mola, Mola hidatiforma as persistence with or without metastases suggested the use of prophylactic doses ofmethotrexate in patients noncompliante. However, observation andevaluation of patients weekly serum HCG level is preferable. Onlypatients with elevated levels of the plate or require chemotherapy.
Patients with metastatic mole nonmetastatica or decreased riskbut are treated with single agent chemotherapy, methotrexate ispreferred. However actinomicina D can be used in patients withpoor liver function. During treatment, serum HCG level is monitoredweekly. It manages a number of additional chemotherapy after the normal level of serum HCG.
Surgical therapy:
Hysterectomy may be needed if an uncontrolled vaginal bleeding.Hysterectomy may reduce the total number of sets needed toachieve remission chemotherapy. Hypogastric or uterine arteryligation or embolization of tumor vessels may be useful to controlbleeding. Hepatic artery embolization was successfully used tocontrol bleeding in liver metastases. Craniotomy may be neededto control bleeding and decompresiona. Resection of solitarymetastasis or disease of miometru can help to achieve remission.
Prognosis:
Nonmetastazica gestational trophoblastic disease has a cure rateof 100% with chemotherapy. High-risk metastatic disease has a75% healing cure by chemotherapy. After 12 months of normalhCG levels less than 1% of patients with this disease showsrecurrent.
