Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We report choriocarcinoma of the ovary associated with mucinous cystadenoma in a 54-year-old postmenopausal woman, the first reported case of this condition. Doppler ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging showed hypervascularity of the tumor that corresponded to the area of choriocarcinoma within the multilocular cyst. The patient exhibited multiple pulmonary metastases and died of intracerebral hemorrhage.
