OBJECTIVE: To analyse prognostic factors in complete hydatidiform moles using multiple logistic regression analysis.
METHODS: Evaluation of host and tumour related parameters including (a) gestational age, patient age, parity, molar phenotype, grade of proliferation of the tumour and cytological atypia, (b) expression of beta-HCG, EGF, EGFR, TGF-alpha, TGF-beta, IL1-alpha, IL1-beta by immunohistochemistry, (c) serial monitoring of serum beta-HCG levels by ELISA, and (d) lectin binding using jack fruit lectin histochemistry as indices for persisting trophoblastic disease (PTD).
RESULTS: Serum beta-HCG levels at 4 weeks, cellular atypia, lectin binding, expression of TGF-alpha and IL1-beta showed highly significant correlation with persistence of the tumour (P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity at 4 weeks in combination with cytological atypia to identify spontaneously regressing lesions was 100% and those requiring chemotherapeutic intervention was 80%.
CONCLUSION: The concentration of serum beta-HCG 4 weeks post evacuation(<300 mIU/ml) combined with cytological abnormalities could identify nearly 100% of the spontaneously regressing lesions (low risk) and 80% of those needing chemotherapeutic intervention (high risk), thereby suggesting that patients who have a serum beta-HCG at 4 weeks of evacuation <300 mIU/ml with no cytological atypia of the trophoblasts need only be followed up at long intervals, while those having a serum beta-HCG at 4 weeks of evacuation >300 mIU/ml accompanied with cytological atypia of the trophoblasts should be closely followed up.
