Lung cancer and pregnancy.
Two pregnant patients presenting with bronchogenic carcinoma are described. A retrospective study of patients with bronchogenic carcinoma as well as a review of the literature attest to the rarity of this combination. If current smoking patterns continue, the association of pregnancy and bronchogenic carcinoma will increase in frequency.
