Article Synopsis
- A rare case of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) with spinal metastasis was reported involving a 34-year-old woman experiencing severe symptoms like leg pain and urinary retention due to a large lumbosacral mass.
- Despite the lack of standardized treatment for such rare instances, the patient underwent a combination of chemotherapy (EMACO) and palliative radiotherapy, resulting in significant mass reduction and improvement in symptoms.
- Three months post-treatment, her condition showed remission, with a notable decrease in both the mass size and β-hCG levels, signifying effective management of this complex case.
