ABSTRACT
Choriocarcinoma is an aggressive malignant trophoblastic neoplasm. The rapid growth of neoplastic tissue and myometrial invasion can cause uterine perforation. It is important to quickly diagnose the disease and plan treatment because these tumors are nearly always curable, and fertility can be preserved in most cases with proper management. The outbreak of novel coronavirus disease has affected the whole world since January 2019 and caused delays in treatment and follow-up of patients all over the world. In this study, we report a case of choriocarcinoma who postponed her admission to the hospital after diagnosis because she was afraid of the pandemic and lost her fertility due to uterine rupture and massive intra-abdominal hemorrhage.
