Gestational choriocarcinoma presenting as an extradural mass--a case report.

We report an unusual case of a 23 year old female who presented with symptoms of spinal cord compression by an extradural metastasis from a gestational choriocarcinoma. She gave the history of evacuation of a hydatidiform mole five months prior to presentation, following which she had been totally asymptomatic and had not attended any follow-up. She responded to conventional chemotherapy.
