| 11. | These can be done to diagnose and monitor germ cell tumors and gestational trophoblastic diseases.
|
| 12. | All five tumours arise from trophoblastic cells.
|
| 13. | Another hypothesis states that imprinting may help protect the female from ovarian trophoblastic disease and parthenogenesis.
|
| 14. | Larger bilateral cysts can develop as a result of increased HCG, in particular gestational trophoblastic disease.
|
| 15. | In a normal pregnancy, trophoblastic cells aid the implantation of the fertilised egg into the uterine wall.
|
| 16. | The ISET approach has also been applied to the sensitive isolation and genetic characterization of circulating fetal trophoblastic cells.
|
| 17. | It is a tertiary referral centre for neurosurgery, and is a national centre of excellence for gestational trophoblastic disease.
|
| 18. | Trophoblastic cells secrete hCG, and by measuring levels of hCG in the blood, doctors can monitor the course of disease.
|
| 19. | The cells that form gestational trophoblastic tumours are called trophoblasts and come from tissue that grows to form the placenta during pregnancy.
|
| 20. | The best known of these is the Gestational Trophoblastic Disease ( see Choriocarcinoma and Hydatidiform mole ), detected by trophoblastic screening.
