Abstract
Dr. Lina Sawallha, Dr.Aoun Hakmi
Cancers are rare during pregnancy and diagnosed in about one per 1000 deliveries. Bone cancers account for only 0.2% of all malignancies. Cancers of the pelvic bones during pregnancy constitute specific challenges to both orthopedic oncologists and obstetricians. Thirty one year old primigravida at 23 week gestation presented with 15 cm chondrosarcoma on the left pubic bone. She was delivered by elective caesarean section at 37 week gestation. Surgical resection of the malignant tumor was performed postnatally.
