New Therapeutic Options for Breast Cancer during Pregnancy.

National and international guidelines for pregnant breast cancer patients recommend to treat pregnant patients as closely as possible to the standards for non-pregnant patients. Therefore, new treatment options like sentinel lymph node biopsy or taxane-based chemotherapy have to be carefully checked for their possible implementation even for pregnant patients. These patients need to be treated in a breast cancer center where a multidisciplinary team is ready to support the patient and her family and to serve her with the best up-to-date treatment for mother and child.
