Abstract
A 19-year-old woman who presented with right-sided hemothorax was diagnosed to have gestational trophoblastic disease with pleural metastasis. A CT scan of the chest revealed a pleural mass and serum Beta-subunit of HCG was high. After treatment the hormonal level became normal and the patient remains asymptomatic.
