Abstract

The occurrence of pulmonary metastasis from choriocarcinoma has become exceedingly rare, owing to the high efficacy of chemotherapy and the limited indications for surgical intervention. A 53-year-old woman with a history of a hydatidiform mole four years earlier was found to have a nodular shadow in the right middle lung field on chest radiography.
