Overview
Choriocarcinoma must be differentiated from non neoplasticdiseases, neoplastic diseases, and [differential dx3].
Differentiating choriocarcinoma from other diseases
Choriocarcinoma must be differentiated from other non neoplasticdiseases such as:
Choriocarcinoma must be differentiated from other neoplastic diseases such as:
- Invasive hydatidiform mole
- Placental site trophoblastic tumour (PSTT)
- Mixed germ cell tumour - esp. for testicular and ovarian tumours:
Choriocarcinoma must be differentiated from other
