Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) is a group of conditions that may occur when a pregnancy does not develop properly and includes complete and partial molar pregnancy. Sometimes a molar pregnancy can lead to another form of GTD known as gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). GTD is an uncommon condition. For approximately every 700 pregnancies which end with a live baby, there will be one pregnancy which develops GTD.
