title: [Pregnancy and laryngeal cancer].
abstract: Although cancer during pregnancy is not a common clinical problem, its occurrence is associated with much anxiety distress for patient and physician alike. Such concern arises from the fact, that two lives are involved, and that decisions regarding evaluation of treatment of the mother may have direct consequences for the foetus. We discuss treatment and prognosis of laryngeal cancer during pregnancy of a 33 year old patient.
