Pregnancy-associated cancer (PAC) occurs in 1 in 1000 pregnancies, and the incidence is expected to increase due to delayed childbearing. Diagnosis and management of PACs are challenging as symptoms may overlap with pregnancy changes. A multidisciplinary healthcare team composed of experts is best for caring for these patients. Honest and difficult discussions between the team and the patient are necessary throughout the entire care process.
Pregnancy-associated cancer (PAC) occurs in approximately 1 in 1000 pregnancies, and the incidence is expected to rise due to delayed childbearing (Silverstein et al. in JCO Oncol Pract 16:545-557, 2020; Woitek et al. in ESMO Open 1:e000017, 2016). Diagnosis and management of PACs are challenging and diagnosis is often delayed as symptoms may overlap with physiologic changes of pregnancy (Jha et al. in RadioGraphics 42:220005, 2022). These patients are best cared for by a multidisciplinary healthcare team composed of experts (Silverstein et al. in JCO Oncol Pract 16:545-557, 2020). Management of these patients must balance optimal maternal care with potentially harmful fetal effects. This involves honest, forthright, and sometimes difficult discussions between the care team and the patient throughout the entirety of care. Radiologists play a significant role in timely cancer diagnosis, staging and follow-up during and after pregnancy, accurate determination of gestational age, and in assessing fetal growth and well-being throughout pregnancy.
