Successful in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer after treatment of invasive carcinoma of the breast.
Carcinoma of the breast is the most common female malignancy and may occasionally affect women in the reproductive age group. We report a patient who had primary infertility after surgical extirpation of breast carcinoma. Successful pregnancy and delivery of a healthy baby were achieved after two cycles of IVF-ET therapy.
