Choriocarcinoma is a curable malignancy that occurred approximately 50% after term pregnancies, and prognosis in this form of gestational trophoblastic Disease (GTD) is Poor. The earliest onset choriocarcinoma after term pregnancy in one study was reported 3 weeks after delivery, but in current study, choriocarcinoma was diagnosed 2 weeks after delivery. 28 years-old women gravidity 2, parity 2...

Pure non-gestational choriocarcinoma is a primary germ cell neoplasm that has been defined as a tumor without other germ cell elements. The current study presents an extremely rare case of non-gestational pure choriocarcinoma in a postmenarcheal young female and describes details of the tumor, including the clinicopathological findings. The patient was a 10-year-old female who underwent salping...

The role of surgery in the treatment of patients with metastatic choriocarcinoma has diminished. We present a case of chemo-resistant metastatic choriocarcinoma salvaged by surgery. A 48-year-old patient presented with uterine perforation and severe intractable hemorrhage, and histological examination revealed a choriocarcinoma. After 6 years of disease-free state, recurrence occurred in the re...

Pure choriocarcinoma is very rare in the testes, and host immune responses including tumor infiltrating lymphocytes are unusual in choriocarcinoma. This study reports a case of pure testicular choriocarcinoma with extensive lymphocytic infiltrate and granulomatous inflammation. Scrotal ultrasonography revealed a heterogeneous, hyperechoic intratesticular mass. -human chorionic gonadotropin leve...

Choriocarcinoma vulva is an exceptional location of gestational trophoblastic tumors. We report the case of a female patient of 23 years who had vulvar mass, painful, sitting at the large right lip and measured five centimeters in diameter. Pelvic ultrasound was normal. Beta-h-CG (human chorionic gonadotrophin) quantitative plasma were highly increased. The staging. The biopsy of the mass objec...

Gestational trophoblastic disease has been reported to be responsive to chemotherapy, with a 90% cure rate. Several factors place patients at high risk of experiencing treatment failure with single agent chemotherapy. Choriocarcinoma following term pregnancy is very rare and associated with a poor prognosis and a mortality rate of 33-40%. We present a rare case of cutaneous metastasis of chorio...

Biochemical tumor marker was human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) produced by choriocarcinoma itself, which was used to determine the complete remission of the carcinoma, which was treated by primary systemic methotrexate (MTX) therapy. Also, hCG was the marker of positive pregnancy test in the MTX prevention of choriocarcinoma. It will be important to use biochemical marker produced by the subje...

We report a rare case of choriocarcinoma admixed with placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT). The 36-year-old patient with persistent vaginal bleeding and elevated human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) received three curretages and laparoscopic hysterectomy followed by five cycles of combination chemotherapy with EMA-CO. The serum hCG first decreased and then increased stadily companied by a po...
