Choriocarcinoma (CC) is a highly malignant tumour originating in the trophoblastic tissue. Typically occurring following molar pregnancies, its occurrence after full-term pregnancies is exceptionally uncommon.

We present a case report of a 31-year-old patient who was referred to our hospital with massive vaginal bleeding, 20 days following evacuation of molar pregnancy.
