Abstract
Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) forms a group of disorders spanning the conditions of complete and partial molar pregnancies through to the malignant conditions of invasive mole, choriocarcinoma and the very rare placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT). Presented here are three cases, which included all of the three above mentioned forms of GTD. Each case had a different line of management and outcome and presented to our hospital within a span of one year. The rarity of these cases, in incidence and presentation is of especial importance and thus deserve a mention in modern day obstetrics.
