Normal pregnancy and delivery two years after adjuvant chemotherapy for grade III immature ovarian teratoma
1988
Abstract A 27-year-old woman with grade 3 immature teratoma of the ovary was treated with unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and VAC combination chemotherapy. She received 6 postoperative courses, although initially 12 were planned. Chemotherapy had to be discontinued because of severe bone marrow toxicity. Eighteen months later the patient became pregnant and was ultimately delivered of a normal child. This is the second report of a successful pregnancy following VAC chemotherapy for immature teratoma.
