e12533 Background: Cancer in pregnancy accounts for ~1 in 1,000 pregnancies. Studies show that cytotoxic agents are safe from the second trimester. Long-term follow up has not shown increased malformations or malignancies in children exposed to chemotherapy in utero. There is no evidence of worse outcomes among women diagnosed in pregnancy. Methods: We retrospectively identified women diagnosed with cancer in pregnancy over a 25-year period. Medical records were reviewed for demographics, diagnosis, gestation, timing of treatment and outcomes. We assessed if all cancers need to be treated in pregnancy or if treatment could be safely deferred to allow normal delivery. Results: Twenty-five women were diagnosed with cancer in pregnancy and referred to medical oncology. Of 25 women, 16 (64%) received chemotherapy during pregnancy. These included 13 cases of breast cancer, one Ewing’s sarcoma, one ovarian cancer, and one small cell of cervix. All 16 women received doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide. There were 15 live births and no abnormalities seen in children who received chemotherapy in utero. At a median follow-up of 6 years 11 mothers (69%) are disease free and 4 (25%) have recurrent disease. Of nine mothers who did not receive chemotherapy in pregnancy, seven received chemotherapy immediately post-partum. Six (86%) were diagnosed in early pregnancy (median gestation 13 weeks). There were three cases of Hodgkin lymphoma, two breast cancers, and one ovarian cancer. At a median follow-up of 12 years, all mothers remain disease free. There were no abnormalities seen in these children. Conclusions: We did not identify any adverse outcomes in mothers or infants exposed to chemotherapy during pregnancy. We identified a cohort of patients that do not need immediate treatment during pregnancy. In selected cases, it is safe and appropriate to delay chemotherapy until delivery of the baby. There were no adverse outcomes to mothers due to delayed treatment and no adverse outcomes to babies not exposed to chemotherapy in utero. A multi-disciplinary team is essential to individualize treatment planning. [Table: see text]

Ovarian cancer takes the second place in the incidence of all genital carcinomas occurring in pregnancy. In spite of a low overall incidence of ovarian cancer in pregnancy and, in most cases, asymptomatic clinical picture, the routine use of ultrasonographic examination in early pregnancy has led to a more frequent detection of adnexal masses in pregnant women. The authors presented a case of a 35-years-old patient with the diagnosis of unilocular cyst in the left ovary detected by ultrasonography at gestational week 8, with the subsequent sinistral adnexectomy administered for the rupture of the cystic tumor. Based on the histopathological examination we established the diagnosis of a serous cystadenocarcinoma stage I. The patient refused any proposed modality of oncologic diagnostics and therapy, and delivered a healthy female newborn of 3630g/49 cm, 10 days after the probable term of delivery. The control MRI, 8 months post partum did not confirm the presence of any pathological changes of either genital organs or any other organ of the small pelvis. The patient is in good general condition, under continual medical observation.
