Epithelioid trophoblastic tumour is a rare gestational trophoblastic disease. The diagnosis is based on microscopic morphology and immunohistochemical staining. It is important to avoid misdiagnosis, as this tumour is primarily treated by surgery rather than chemotherapy. We report a case and describe diagnostic criteria and differential diagnoses.
