Persistent gestational trophoblastic tumor develops in about 15-25% after evacuation of complete mole, and arises in about 4-5% after removal of partial mole. Especially there is reported that choriocarcinoma after evacuation of partial mole is extremely rare, and it is well responded to systemic chemotherapy. We have experienced that a case of choriocarcinoma which was developed after evacuation of partial mole. So we report this case with a brief review of literatures.

Vascular access thrombosis is one of the major causes of morbidity in patients maintained on chronic hemodialysis. Thrombophilia has been recognized as a risk factor of vascular access thrombosis. The authors report a case of inherited protein S deficiency associated with vascular access thrombotic events. DNA sequence analysis of the PROS1 gene identified a novel heterozygous nonsense mutation in exon 10 by transition of AAG (lysine) to TAG (stop codon) at codon 473 (c.1417A>T, p.K473X). Results from the study suggest that the inherited protein S deficiency due to a PROS1 gene mutation may cause vascular access thrombosis in hemodialysis patients.
