Primary choriocarcinoma of uterine cervix treated by uterine artery drug pouring and embolism: one case report

Primary choriocarcinoma of the uterine cervix (PCC) is an extremely rare disease. The conventional treatment of PCC is a combination of hysterectomy and chemotherapy. We present one rare case proved by cervical biopsy. The patient was an 36-year-old Chinese woman with irregular vaginal bleeding for 60 days. A cervical tumoral mass was seen in the pelvic examination and biopsy revealed active hyperplasia of trophoblastic cell. Because of massive vaginal haemorrhage, the patient accepted uterine artery drug pouring and embolism emergently. This management had gained a satisfactory effect. Thus, Uterine artery drug pouring and embolism is one new and effective weapon for PCC, which can preserve the patient’s productive ability.
