What is the Level of HCG in Choriocarcinoma?

1. HCG generally refers to Human Chorionic Gonadotropin. In patients with choriocarcinoma, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin levels can generally reach around 100-20,000 mIU/mL.

2. Choriocarcinoma is a highly malignant tumor that often occurs after a hydatidiform mole, miscarriage, or full-term delivery, and can also occur after ectopic pregnancy. Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a glycoprotein secreted by placental trophoblast cells. It has certain value in the diagnosis, differentiation, and course observation of choriocarcinoma. In early stages, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin levels in patients with choriocarcinoma are relatively low, around 100-1000 mIU/mL. Subsequently, as the disease progresses, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin levels will rapidly rise, reaching around 20,000 mIU/mL or even higher, depending on the patient's condition.

3. If patients experience irregular vaginal bleeding after a hydatidiform mole, postpartum, or miscarriage, with the uterus failing to return to its normal state as expected and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin levels remaining persistently high, they should seek medical attention promptly to rule out the possibility of choriocarcinoma.
