We report a pure brain metastasis of choriocarcinoma from a mixed germ cell tumor of the ovary in a 19-year-old patient. This condition is extremely rare. Following abdominal operative procedures, multiple courses of combination chemotherapy, and resection of chemotherapy-resistant pulmonary metastases, a brain metastasis developed during chemotherapy. Craniotomy with resection of the neoplasm, brain radiation, and further chemotherapy was followed by disappearance of a pulmonary metastasis and long-term survival of the patient.
