Pregnancy and breast cancer.
Pregnancy-associated breast cancer (PABC) and pregnancy subsequent to breast cancer are two areas of concern facing women of childbearing age. The current approach to the management of PABC is to treat the cancer with some modification because of the pregnancy. The clinical management of both PABC and pregnancy occurring after breast cancer in young survivors, with emphasis on issues in clinical decision making, clinical management, and client education and support, are addressed.
