Abstract
A retrospective evaluation of 85 case histories of chemotherapy-resistant trophoblastic disease treated at the Center's clinic (1975-1996) was carried out. Both therapy efficacy and survival rates were lower in patients operated on prior to chemotherapy and during medication. However, excision of resistant foci of trophoblastic tumor contributed to the effectiveness of chemotherapy.
