“…Vaccarello et al conducted a review of the English literature published between 1927 and 1997 and identified only 27 such cases (1) . In 13 of these, the diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma was established during the first trimester or beginning of the second one, whereas diagnosis was made between 2 weeks and 31 months postpartum in the remaining 11 cases.…”

Endometrial carcinoma coexisting with pregnancy is rarely observed. We report here the case of a 35-year-old woman with an endometrial carcinoma that was diagnosed 6 months after childbirth. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a cystic mass attached to the uterus, with a papillary projection on the wall of the mass. The patient underwent complete surgical extirpation and five postoperative courses of adjuvant chemotherapy, given that the tumor contents had leaked into the peritoneal cavity when the capsule of the tumor ruptured intraoperatively. Microscopic examination revealed an endometrioid adenocarcinoma in the muscular layer close to the uterine serosa that was presumed to derive from adenomyosis. Further investigation is required to elucidate the pathogenesis of endometrial carcinoma in association with pregnancy and adenomyosis.

The number of cancer diagnosis during pregnancy is increasing as a result of becoming widespread of screening tests and advanced pregnancy age. Gynecologic oncologists and oncologist make effort for medical and surgical treatments of cancer without any side effect on fetal well-being. In this review, the diagnosis, treatments and fetal effects of gynecologic cancers during pregnancy was discussed.

Gynecologic malignancy during pregnancy is a stressful problem. For the diagnosis and treatment of malignancy during pregnancy, a multidisciplinary approach is needed. Patients should be advised about the benefits and risk of treatment. When selecting a treatment for malignancy during pregnancy, the physiologic changes that occur with the pregnancy should be considered. Various diagnostic procedures that do not harm the fetus can be used. Laparoscopic surgery or laparotomy may be safely performed. The staging approach and treatment should be standard. Systemic chemotherapy during the first trimester should be delayed if possible. Radiation therapy should preferably start postpartum. Although delivery should be delayed preferably until after 35 weeks of gestation, termination of pregnancy may be considered when immediate treatment is required. Subsequent pregnancies do not increase the risk of malignancy recurrence.
