Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) comprises a group of human neoplastic diseases that derive from fetal trophoblastic tissues. They are proliferative as well as degenerative disorders of placental elements and include complete hydatidiform mole (CHM) or partial hydatidiform mole (PHM) (90%), invasive mole (IM) (5-8%), which could also be metastatic, villous, or villous choriocarcinoma (CC) (1-2%), and placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT) (1-2%). We present three cases of GTN, two mimicking tuberculosis radiologically, and all three are associated with pulmonary embolism.
妊娠滋养细胞肿瘤(GTN)是一组源自胎儿滋养层组织的人类肿瘤性疾病。它们是胎盘成分的增殖性和退行性疾病,包括完全性葡萄胎(CHM)或部分性葡萄胎(PHM)(90%)、侵蚀性葡萄胎(IM)(5 - 8%,也可能发生转移)、绒毛膜癌(CC)(1 - 2%)以及胎盘部位滋养细胞肿瘤(PSTT)(1 - 2%)。我们报告3例GTN病例,其中2例在影像学上酷似肺结核,且所有3例均伴有肺栓塞。
