The ovarian mass associated with a molar pregnancy and elevated hCG is the theca lutein cyst.
These masses are typically bilateral and appear as large, multiloculated adnexal masses.
GTD includes hydatidiform mole, invasive mole, and choriocarcinoma.
¡ Because this disease has malignant potential, other imaging modalities and hCG monitoring is typically warranted.
