[Extrauterine choriocarcinoma--a rare form of gestational trophoblastic disease].

Choriocarcinoma represents the most serious form of trophoblast gestation disease. In the majority of cases the carcinomatous tissues fill out the uterine cavity, or they grow in a form of nodes deep in the uterine wall. The primary extrauterine localization of this tumour is very rare. The authors describe two cases of choriocarcinomas with tubal or ovarian localization. (Fig. 4, Ref. 19.)
