Abstract

Malignant trophoblastic tumors (TO) include invasive and metastatic cystic drift, choriocarcinoma, TO of the placental bed, and epithelioid TO. They are rare, mainly in women of reproductive age, and most importantly, they are always associated with pregnancy. To date, the Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology has accumulated a large and unique experience of modern diagnostics and treatment of patients with various forms of malignant TO. An obligatory stage of the examination is ultrasound diagnostics of the pelvic organs. In addition, performing an ultrasound examination during the treatment period, along with monitoring the level of chorionic gonadotropin, makes it possible to assess the effectiveness of treatment, diagnose tumor resistance and ascertain the onset of remission.
