Abstract: | Malignant histiocytic lymphoma has been rarely found during pregnancy. The present case appears to be the eleventh reported in the world literature. Its management represented a diagnostic challenge because of the unusual symptoms. Surgery, external irradiation, and chemotherapy produced excellent and lasting results with complete recovery of the mother and an unaffected offspring. |
