- Abstract
Partial hydatidiform moles (PMs) rarely require chemotherapy and have never previously been proven to transform into choriocarcinoma, the most malignant form of gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD). Consequently, some have questioned whether women with PMs need human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) follow-up. Here, we investigate whether PMs can transform into choriocarcinomas.
