Description | Extragonadal germ cell tumors are uncommon but often agressive diseases, which require rapid diagnostics and intensive treatment. This group includes also extragonadal choriocarcinoma, known especially in women in pregnancy, but it may occur also in men. We report a case of a young patient with "high-volume" metastatic extragonadal choriocarcinoma. His disease is in remission after an intensive treatment despite live threatening complications. |
