Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical factors influencing the prognosis of patients with gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) after chemotherapy. Methods The clinical data of 55 patients with gestational trophoblastic diseases in our hospital from 2009 to 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, including 26 cases with hydatidiform mole and 29 cases with GTN (23 cases of invasive mole and 6 cases of choriocarcinoma). Among them, 23 GTN patients with the follow-up human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)5 U/L for 3 times after chemotherapy were included in this study. The age, reproductive history, lung metastasis, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage and other clinical factors which might affect the cure time of GTN patients were analyzed by Cox regression analysis. The relationship between age and reproductive history and cure time were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results Cox regression univariate analysis showed that term delivery and abortion were related to the cure time of GTN patients (both P0.05), and the age was close to statistical significance (P=0.051). Cox multivariate analysis showed that term delivery was an independent factor influencing the cure time of GTN patients (P=0.020). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that age (P=0.043), term delivery (P=0.016) and abortion (P=0.026) were related to the cure time of GTN patients after chemotherapy. Conclusion Older women or women who have histories of term delivery or abortion should be alerted to the occurrence of GTN, which has long cure time and the dynamic changes of blood HCG need to be closely monitored.
