A case of intracranial choriocarcinoma (probably primary), a rare variety of atypical teratoma, is reported. Diagnosis and treatment were based on radiological and hormonal studies. The usefulness of computed tomography (CT) in the follow-up and treatment of patients with tumors in areas not easily accessible for surgical exploration or biopsy is again

Nineteen patients with gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) metastatic to the brain are reviewed. These patients constituted 9.0% of 210 [corrected] patients with GTD treated between November 1967 and December 1987. Four patients (21%) presented with primary neurological symptoms of GTD; four patients developed brain metastases during or after ...

Choriocarcinoma is a notorious, highly malignant tumor of placental or teratoid testicular origin. An obscure entity referred to as "primary extragenital chorionepithelioma of the mediastinum" is described herewith as choriocarcinoma of the thymus. The fact that this neoplasm occurs almost exclusively in young men is substantiated by similar sequences ...

29 patients with trophoblastic tumors of the uterus were evaluated at the University of California, San Francisco. 8 patients admitted before 1956, did not receive chemotherapy; the mortality rate was 87.5%. 21 patients were treated with chemotherapy. The mortality due to disease was 10%.

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1992
The incidence of primary cervical choriocarcinoma is extremely low, with only approximately 60 cases reported. We present a case of primary cervical choriocarcinoma, which was originally mis‐diagnosed as a cervical pregnancy. After failure of conservative treatment with methotrexate, the patient underwent a hysterectomy, followed by chemotherapy with ...

The diagnosis of choriocarcinoma
Clinical Radiology, 1964Summary Choriocarcinoma, a rare malignant tumour of trophoblast, is of interest because of its favourable response to modern treatment. Diagnosis is sometimes easy, but may present problems, in part because the tumour is often haemorrhagic and necrotic, and in part because malignancy can be simulated by trophoblast itself, which is invasive and when ...

From 1960 to 1970 8 patients with metastatic choriocarcinoma of the testis were treated at the Naval Hospital in Long Beach California. The men ranged in age from 22 to 45 years. 6 patients had testicular enlargement 1 had hemoptysis and 1 had an abdominal mass. All patients were managed with chemotherapy using actinomycin D plus an aklylating agent

Primary choriocarcinoma of the lung is an extremely rare condition with a fatal outcome in most patients. We report the case of a 31-year-old woman with cough, chest pain, and hemoptysis, whose chest radiograph displayed nodules in the right upper lobe. After study and an unsuccessful attempt at histological characterization of the lesions, exploratory

Abstract 1.1. Choriocarcinoma is a very malignant and rapidly fatal tumor. 2.2. Excessive vaginal bleeding, and lesions of the vagina, lungs, and liver, especially following a recent pregnancy, should suggest the possibility of a chorionepithelioma. 3.3.
