In this volume Dr Hui has brought together a comprehensive overview
of gestational trophoblastic disease that includes all the
currently recognized entities: complete and partial hydatidiform
moles, placental site trophoblastic tumor, epithelioid
trophoblastic tumor, gestational choriocarcinoma, persistent
gestational trophoblastic neoplasia, placental site nodule and
exaggerated placental site reaction. Each entity is reviewed in
detail, with emphasis on genetic background, clinical presentation,
pathologic findings and ancillary studies, differential diagnosis
and clinicopathological correlations. Descriptions of the pathology
are supported by numerous excellent photomicrographs. Recent
advances in our understanding of the genetics of gestational
trophoblastic diseases are stressed. Introductory chapters cover
the developmental biology of the placenta and the genetic basis of
gestational trophoblastic disease, and one chapter is devoted to
the molecular diagnosis of gestational trophoblastic disease. This
chapter includes a review of the use of short tandem repeat (STR)
genotyping which is of particular value in the diagnosis of
hydatidiform moles. The final chapter covers clinical aspects of
gestational trophoblastic disease, including treatment. The text
throughout is current and thoroughly referenced. This book will be
of great value to pathologists, community gynecologists,
gynecological pathologists and medical students.
