Abstract

The authors report a case in which a trophoblastic tumour developed at the implantation site in a 34-year-old woman in her second pregnancy. She had previously had trophoblastic disease that had persisted after a molar pregnancy. Using monoclonal anti-beta-hCG antibodies in order to localise the tumour by clinical radio immunodetection made it possible to cure the patient. The tumour was a secretory tumour and hysterectomy was the cure.
