Paclitaxel and cisplatin in the treatment of metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer during pregnancy.
The concomitant occurrence of cancer during pregnancy is a rare event. The cancers most frequently detected during pregnancy are breast, cervical, melanoma, ovarian, leukaemia and lymphoma, however the diagnosis of lung cancer during pregnancy is particularly exceptional. In this case, we report on a pregnant woman who was diagnosed with non-small-cell lung cancer and received therapy with paclitaxel and cisplatin.
