Abstract
A case of primary pineal choriocarcinoma with acute onset of hemorrhage is reported in a young male. The patient received conservative therapy, including irradiation, on the basis of a suspected germinoma. Subsequent serial computerized tomography showed progressive hemorrhage in the primary pineal choriocarcinoma, which was confirmed at autopsy.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
