Abstract

Upon chemotherapy with daunorubidomycin and cytosinarabinoside, a patient suffering from acute promyelocytic leukaemia during the 28. week of pregnancy achieved complete haematological remission. In spite of complicating disseminated intravascular coagulopathy and aggressive chemotherapy a normal child was delivered by cesarian section during the 34. week of pregnancy. Specific problems in the treatment of acute leukaemia during pregnancy are discussed.
