[Hodgkin's disease in pregnancy--case report and literature review].

We report the case of a 24-year-old Gravida II/Para I who was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease (stage 2A) at week 28 of pregnancy. Due to clinical progression, a dose-reduced adriamycin, bleomycin, vincristin, dacarbazine chemotherapy was started at week 32. After unsuccessful induction of labor at week 35, secondary cesarean section with a healthy newborn was performed. Chemotherapy was continued with full dose 10 days postpartum. We discuss clinical management as well as diagnostic and therapeutic options with respect to the available literature.
