Popis: Gestational trophoblastic disease is a heterogenous group of interrelated lesions that arise from abnormal proliferation of placental 1 trophoblasts . Choriocarcinoma differs from any type of villous trophoblast and is the most aggressive GTN and is highly chemosensitive. When a patient reports with irregular bleeding during her postpartum or postabortion, pregnancy related causes should be ruled out. We describe a patient who presented to us after a term pregnancy and was diagnosed to have stage III choriocarcinoma.
