Placental site trophoblastic tumour: Clinical features and management

PSTT is rare and accounts for 0.23% cases of gestational trophoblastic disease referred to this centre. It has a variety of presenting features and its course is unpredictable. Metastatic involvement and antecedent pregnancy interval greater than 4 years are poor prognostic factors. Hysterectomy is the primary mode of treatment in the majority of cases. However, chemotherapy can still play a major role when curative surgery is not feasible.
