Lymphoma and leukemia complicating pregnancy.
The hematologic malignancies rarely complicate pregnancy. Pregnancy is not thought to affect the course of either Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, or the leukemias. The prognosis worsens only if there is a delay in diagnosis or treatment. Both chemotherapy and radiotherapy have been administered during pregnancy with favorable results.
