title: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in pregnancy.
abstract: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma associated with pregnancy is rare. To date, only 1 case in which lymphoma was diagnosed and treated during pregnancy, with normal pregnancy outcome, has been reported. We describe another case where life-threatening, diffuse, poorly differentiated lymphocytic lymphoma was diagnosed during the 13th week of pregnancy. Combination chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, bleomycin, and prednisone) resulted in remission and a health full-term infant was born.
