title: Pregnancy following treatment of an adolescent with Yolk sac tumour.
abstract: The Authors present the case of a patient suffering from a highly malignant tumour, Yolk sac tumour, who received a combined treatment of operation and chemotherapy. The treatment was applied selectively, i.e. surgery was as radical and as conservative as deemed necessary. The patient was cured and after getting married, she gave birth to a baby girl with pes varus. Because of lack of experience with Yolk sac tumours, which up to the cytologic era had had bad prognoses, and of insufficient knowledge with the consequences of chemotherapy on the generative and reproductive functions of the patients cured, we consider our case to be worthy of attention.
