Choriocarcinoma presenting with upper gastrointestinal bleeding and intussusception.

I Popov1, D Muckart, J Moodley.   

Abstract

Choriocarcinomas are rare genital tract tumours, which can present with extragenital symptoms and signs. We report on an 18-year-old nulliparous woman presenting with jejunal choriocarcinoma. An outline of the diagnostic difficulties and different manifestations of extragenital choriocarcinoma is given. A high index of suspicion should be maintained and a multi-disciplinary approach is mandatory.
