Algorithm monitoring after surgical treatment of hydatidiform mole
Algorithm monitoring after surgical treatment of hydatidiform mole
During hCG monitoring, all patients should be using reliable contraception as a new pregnancy during this time would make it difficult or impossible to interpret hCG results and would complicate management.
hCG: human chorionic gonadotropin; GTN: gestational trophoblastic neoplasia.
* Rarely, hCG plateaus at a low level (<200 milli-international units/mL). Refer to UpToDate content on quiescent GTN.
¶ Refer to UpToDate content on staging, risk stratification, and treatment of GTN.
