Medulloblastoma in two successive pregnancies.

A 24-year old primaparous female at 20 weeks gestation presented acutely with cerebellar symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging brain showed evidence of a cerebellar vermis lesion. This was diagnosed as medulloblastoma on histopathological analysis. She underwent surgical debulking and radiotherapy. Interestingly, the lesion recurred 4 years later on her second pregnancy. She underwent further surgical debulking and adjuvant chemotherapy. We believe this is the first reported description of recurrent medulloblastoma in successive pregnancies. A brief discussion on this disease and its management in pregnancy setting is also presented.
