  • Title: Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia.
    Author: Hammond CB, Weed JC, Barnard DE, Tyrey L.
    Journal: CA Cancer J Clin; 1981; 31(6):322-32. PubMed ID: 6286054.
    Abstract:
    As a result of modern diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, nearly 100 percent of patients with GTN can be cured of a disease thay only a few years ago had a high death rate. To achieve this, skillful mixing of chemotherapy, surgery, and irradiation, as well as supportive therapy, are necessary. Understanding and utilizing the HCG assay to monitor disease status is vital. With this approach, essentially all of these patients should survive, many to have successful future pregnancies.
