Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of laparoscopic surgery in the diagnosis of suspected gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) cases with uterine mass.Methods The clinical characteristics of patients underwent laparoscopic surgery for a suspected diagnosis of GTN with uterine mass in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from November 2009 to November 2014 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed.GTN and other pregnant-related disease were definitely diagnosed by pathological findings.The prognoses of the GTN cases were also investigated.Results Sixty-two patients with a suspected diagnosis of GTN with uterine mass were studied.Among them,17 cases were definitely diagnosed as GTN,including 8 choriocarcinoma,5 invasive mole and 4 placental site trophoblastic tumor(PSTT).The other 45 cases were diagnosed as benign pregnancy-related diseases,including 29 cornual pregnancy,6 cesarean scar pregnancy,5 placenta accreta,4 intramural uterine pregnancy and 1 exaggerated placental site.There were no significantly differences between the two groups in average age,preoperative value or tendency of β-hCG,and location or size of lesions (P＞0.05).More GTN patients showed a history of hydatidiform mole [5/17 vs 4％ (2/45),P＞0.05],and more patients with benign pregnancy-related disease showed a history of cesarean section [38％ (17/45) vs 1/17,P＞0.05].No serious perioperative complication was found in these patients received laparoscopic surgery.All GTN patients achieved complete remission by chemotherapy later.Except for 1 case loss,no recurrence was found in 11 low-risk stage Ⅰ cases with an average follow-up period of 11-66 months,1 high-risk stage Ⅰ case with a follow-up period of 61 months and 4 cases PSTT with a follow-up period of 13-66 months.Conclusions There were some atypical GTN cases with uterine mass,which were difficult to be differentiated from benign pregnancy-related diseases according to the clinical characteristics.Laparoscopic surgery with a pathologic diagnosis could be an essential way with efficiency and safety.
