RESUMEN
Gestational trophoblastic tumors, an uncommon group of pregnancy-related neoplasms, should be considered in any premenopausal patient presenting with metastatic disease from an unknown primary. A raised hCG and exclusion of pregnancy are often the only requirement in this situation. Although a potentially curable condition, a late diagnosis and the extent of the metastatic disease often determine the prognosis. Here we describe two young women with metastatic GTN, the first presenting with a very unusual finger metastasis and the second with a rare large solitary lung lesion with brain metastasis.
