Abstract EN
This case demonstrates a rare event of retained invasive placenta masquerading as choriocarcinoma.
The patient presented with heavy vaginal bleeding following vaginal delivery complicated by retained products of conception.
Ultrasound and computed tomography demonstrated a vascular endometrial mass, invading the uterine wall and raising suspicion for choriocarcinoma.
Hysterectomy revealed retained invasive placenta.
