Abstract
Worldwide introduction of the International Fedaration of Gynaecology and Obstetrics
(FIGO) 2000 scoring system has provided an effective means to stratify patients with
gestational trophoblastic neoplasia to single- or multi-agent chemotherapy. However,
the system is quite elaborate with an extensive set of risk factors. In this study,
we re-evaluate all prognostic risk factors involved in the FIGO 2000 scoring system
and examine if simplification is feasible.
