title: [Stomach cancer and pregnancy].
abstract: The symptoms of gastric carcinoma are nonspecific and uncharacteristic especially during the pregnancy. Two cases of gastric carcinoma in pregnancy are reported. In both cases the diagnosis of the malignoma was not made in an early stage. Therefore both women died within a short period after the delivery due to the metastasis of the gastric cancer. The newborns survived the complicated pregnancy and they were born spontaneously and by cesarean section. The reasons for the delayed diagnosis and the problems of this malignoma during a pregnancy are discussed based on the own observations and the published cases.
