Result : GTN w/ teca lutein cyst bilateral





• bHCG 3/12/08=15.200

• 15/12/08: TSH=0,013 FT4=3,96

• 2/12/08 Thorax : multiple nodul in both lung à lung meta


• 5/1/09 vaginal bleeding à emergency ward

– CBC : 6,8/9100/385000

• Problem

GTN w/ lung metastasis

• Suggestion

Improved general condition w/ transfusion and

straight to do chemoth w/ MTX+Etoposide

If there were massive bleeding àhisterectomy

Discussion

• This patient is Stadium II-III (FIGO). The treatment of

patient with GTN metastatic, is a combination 2 regiment

chemotherapy, Methotrexate and Dactinomycin. Or other

combination regiment, Methotrexate and Etoposide.

(Evidence based level III-C). Other treatment, single

regiment only, such as Metothrexate, can be used also for

treating GTN metastatic. (Evidence based level III-C).

Case 2:

• Ms 18yo

• Gyn.state:

Abd: abdomen enlarged, solid mass until 2 finger

above umbilicus, limited mobility, ascites (-)

Rt: solid mass fullfilled Douglas pouch until 2 finger

above umbilicus

• USG 28/11/08:

Tumor marker 1/12/08 :

– LDH: 2403

– AFP: 0,9

– ß-HCG: 13,1

Problem

Solid Ovarian Neoplasm

suspected Malignancy

on Very Young Woman

Discussion

  • Actually it is not necessary to do VC in cases of ovarian neoplasm in young woman, because it doesnt change the modality of treatment -->conservative
  • Because most of the solid ovarian neoplasma in this age is likely to be Dysgerminoma, and it is very responsive to chemotherapy

1 comment:

  1. This indeed is very likely to be a dysgerminoma. The elevated LDH supports this diagnosis. But we have to wait for the definite pathology report after surgical staging. Fertility can be saved in this young woman.
    My congratulations with this nice website. You all are doing a great job.
    Kindest regards,

    Peter Heintz.
