Cervical cancer and pregnancy: treatment management
Pregnancy and cervical carcinoma occurring concomitantly causes therapeutic and ethical dilemmas. The management for this situation will depend on the gestational age at the time of diagnosis, disease staging, size of the lesion and the patient’s wish to maintain pregnan cy and fertility. Review of the literature suggest that pregnancy does not seem to influence the prognosis of cervical cancer.
