A recent study conducted at University Hospital in Alicante, Spain, focused on placental-site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT), a rare form of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) in gynecologic oncology. The researchers presented a case of a patient who had undergone a hysterectomy for persistent gestational trophoblastic disease after a hydatidiform mole, only to discover a primary PSTT in the uterus. The patient later developed bone metastases, a rare occurrence for this type of tumor. The study highlighted the challenges in diagnosing and treating PSTT, emphasizing the need for a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for a favorable response.
