Abstract
We report the case of a patient who presented to the emergency department with holocranial pain and loss of consciousness. She had given birth to her fourth child 3 months previously. After several days of investigations, we observed a high serum beta-human chorionic gonadotrophin level and hemorrhagic brain metastases. These data led to a diagnosis of metastases from choriocarcinoma.
