Abstract | OBJECTIVE: RESULTS: Forty-two patients (76%) achieved pregnancy, resulting in 20 pregnancies and 94 viable babies. CONCLUSIONS:
Chemotherapy is very effective in the cure of gestational trophoblastic tumors. Return of fertility compares favorably with the general population of the same reproductive age. There appears to be no increase in fetal congenital malformations.
