Abstract
✓ A case is reported of a newborn child whose predominant lesion was a metastatic choriocarcinoma of the brain. The outstanding features of the clinical course were repeated episodes of intracranial and subgaleal hemorrhage. Angiograms revealed large areas of pooling of contrast medium without neovascularization or rapid venous drainage. A review of the literature demonstrated the infrequency with which this lesion has been encountered.Keywords
