Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies epithelioid trophoblastic tumour (ETT) as a category of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). Initially scripted by Shih and Kurman in 1998, the exceptional epithelioid trophoblastic tumour emerges as a derivative of neoplastic, chorionic- type, intermediate trophoblastic tissue and is associated with a variable clinical representation [1]. Epithelioid trophoblastic tumour may frequently coexist with placental-site trophoblastic tumour and the entities necessitate appropriate segregation. Nevertheless, a comprehensive, universally accepted protocol of tumour discernment, appropriate therapeutic regimen and duration of therapy for epithelioid trophoblastic tumour remains obscure.
