Abstract
Metastatic choriocarcinoma is rarely considered during a viable pregnancy but is almost always fatal if unrecognized. Early recognition enhances the chances of cure with chemotherapy. Arteriovenous malformations are typically considered in young women with intracerebral hemorrhages and have higher risk of rupture in pregnant women, but physicians should also be aware of metastatic choriocarcinoma and the development of mycotic aneurysms in peripartum women with intracerebral hemorrhages.
