[Pregnancy after breast cancer].
In what ways can a premenopausal woman be pregnant after a breast carcinoma's treatment? A survey organized in 1985 by the French Gynecologic Association gave us the opinion of 316 gynecologists: 50% of them disagreed with this pregnancy because of an accrued risk of relapse. 68 observations were collected including 41 of full term pregnancies; the survival curves were, in each group, similar to those of the controls at the same stage. The interruption doesn't improve the prognosis. This confirms the whole of the published series: a subsequent pregnancy doesn't seem to affect the prognosis of a breast carcinoma; it is important to take the contraception into account so that this pregnancy shall be really desired.
