Resumen

MARTINEZ CAMILO, Rodolfo Valentín  y  ALVAREZ PONCE, Vivian. Behavior of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia in 10 years. Rev Cubana Obstet Ginecol [online]. 2002, vol.28, n.3. ISSN 0138-600X.

A retrospective, longitudinal and descriptive study was performed in the maternity hospital of Guanabacoa municipality from 1990 to 2000 to find out the behavior of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia in this period. The sample was made up of 29 patients who had been seen in the above-mentioned hospital and adequate data for this study were taken from their medical histories. The prevailing age group among the patients was 21-25 years with 51,7%; nulliparity was present in the highest number of cases with 51,7% whereas the gestational age at which this disease mostly occurred was 9-12 weeks for 48,2%. The most frequent histological finding was hydatiform mole for 89,6%. It was concluded that ultrasound should be applied for cases of amenorrhea and genital bleeding so as to make an early diagnosis of the disease and remove the mole by vacuum curettage that was the type of treatment used.
