Metastatic choriocarcinoma in an infant: imaging appearance.

Metastatic choriocarcinoma is unusual in infancy and considered to be due to metastases from the placenta. Only fifteen cases have been previously reported. We present an unusual case of hepatic, pulmonary, and axillary lymph node metastases from choriocarcinoma in a 3-month-old female. Several of the lesions had large vascular channels identified by computed tomography and sonography with color and duplex Doppler.
