Abstract:
Documented reports of maternal malignancy metastatic to the placenta and fetus are rare. From 1866 until the present there have been 52 cases reported in the Western literature. We report a case of maternal large-cell carcinoma of the lung metastatic to the maternal brain and the placenta without fetal involvement.
