She maintained a complete clinical response for 12 months after conservative surgery, uterine aspiration, and multiple-agent chemotherapy. Tumor recurrence appeared with a second pregnancy. A healthy infant was delivered despite resumption of chemotherapy. The use of cytotoxic chemotherapy during pregnancy is reviewed.
