A member asked:
Is this normal with retained placental parts. "two biopsy samples showed placental site nodules with intermed. trophoblastic cells showing sig atypia"?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need specialist: This is a very concerning and confusing pathology report. It sounds like a problem called 'gestational trophoblastic disease' is a possibility and you need referral to a gynecologic oncologist. While this starts as a local problem in the uterus, if not addressed and treated, it can turn into cancer. Please get expert help!
