The pregnancy was complicated with asymmetric fetus hipotrophy. Two years after delivery she had assessments for dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, pelvic pain, and anemia. Gynaecological examination and pelvic endovaginal ultrasonography revealed enlarged uterus. Tumour structure was found with diameter ranging from 40 to 63 mm. The round focus with diameter 15 mm in the left lung by chest roentgenogram was revealed. The patient was diagnosed as follows: hysterography, curettage, bronchoscopy, laparoscopy.
