Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;PSTT is uncommon form of GTD accounting less than 3% cases.The tumour comprises of monomorphic neoplastic implantation site trophoblastic cells and lack the typical biphasic plexiform growth pattern of choriocarcinoma. Interestingly, despite deep myometrial involvement,most PSTT are self limiting which run a benign course and only 10-15%cases are malignant and need intensive chemotherapy.Here we present a case of 41 yrs old female with bleeding per vaginum since 10 months which histologically shows the feature of malignant PSTT invading deep between myometrial muscles and the vessel wall shows fiinoid material deposition with serum beta HCG&lt;1000mIU/ml</p>
