Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A case of a 38year old grandmultipara (Gravida9, Para7+1, all alive) woman with squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix co-existing with multiple pregnancy is presented. She had therapeutic termination of pregnancy with oxytocin at a gestation age of 18 weeks. This was followed by intracavitary and then extracavitary radiotherapy. The need to consider the possibility of carcinoma of cervix in bleeding disorders of early pregnancy and the importance of a thorough evaluation of such patients is emphasized. |
