Abstract:
A 40-year-old woman presented with subcutaneous masses on her chest wall, abnormal vaginal bleeding and an enlarged uterus. Chest X-ray and liver ultrasound revealed metastatic disease to these sites, respectively. A urine human chorionic gonadotrophin assay was positive. A biopsy of the chest wall lesion and endometrium revealed choriocarcinoma. Treatment with methotrexate, actinomycin-D and cyclophosphamide led to complete resolution of the disease on examination, X-ray and ultrasound scans. The urinary pregnancy test became negative.

Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
