Abstract

The author treated choriocarcinoma (Ch-C) with systemic primary Methotrexate (MTX) and achieved complete remission with the disappearance of primary and metastatic foci by repeated 200 to 300 mg intensive MTX courses, confirmed by the loss of human chorionic gnadotropine (hCG) in the serum and urine. Thus, the author intended to prevent choriocarcinoma (Ch-C) with MTX chemotherapy.
