[Thyroid neoplasms and pregnancy].
Pregnancies and deliveries of ten patients are reported who underwent a complex treatment (surgery, 131J, thyroid hormone) for highly differentiated follicular and papillary thyroid carcinomas. Out of ten cases, in 3 cases two were pregnant and in two cases two delivered. Besides papillary and papillofollicular carcinomas, surgery revealed that six patients had regional lymph node metastases of N1 or N2. On the evidence of the deliveries, follow-up examinations after the operation, and complementary treatment of these two types of tumor, pregnancy is not contraindicated, since a progression of the primary disease, neonatal hypothyroidism, and factitious hyperthyroidism have not been found.
