This is a case of a 33-year-old, G3P3(3003) female patient with a clinical presentation of vaginal bleeding associated with on and off hypogastric pain. The patient was diagnosed and managed as a case of tubo-ovarian abscess and subsequently underwent total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (TAHBSO). Microscopic sections of both ovaries, however, showed dual population of tumor cells composed of medium-sized, mononucleated cells admixed with multinucleated giant cells with marked pleomorphism, extensive hemorrhage and necrosis. Immunohistochemistry studies using beta-hCG was diagnostic of ovarian choriocarcinoma, favoring non-gestational in origin. Classification of non-gestational choriocarcinoma (NGOC) was established using diagnostic criteria for NGOC established by Saito et al., and Mangla et al. DNA analysis, however, remains to be the gold-standard for differentiating between gestational (GOC) and non-gestational (NGOC) etiology.
