“…We identified thirty two cases of pregnant patients with tongue SCC following a literature search as shown in table 1, with the current patient included. 4,5,6,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26 We excluded cases reported as a regional recurrence of tongue SCC during pregnancy. Only one pregnant patient with SCC of the tongue in the published literature chose termination of pregnancy prior to treatment of the malignancy; however, publication bias must be considered when interpreting this.…”

“…From the limited literature available (5 case reports involving 7 patients in total) the majority of patients (5 cases) were successfully treated by surgery alone (resection and reconstruction) with delivery of a healthy baby 1 18–20. In one case, a limited resection was undertaken in order to avoid stress to the fetus; this patient unfortunately died from recurrence 20. The final patient declined surgery, but instead underwent treatment with chemotherapy until 32 weeks gestation and then underwent delivery by caesarean section.…”

Systemic lupus erythematosus, pregnancy and carcinoma of the tongue

2013

We present a case which describes a 29-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus who was treated aggressively with cytotoxic immunosuppression. Five years later and approximately 12 weeks pregnant, she is confirmed as having carcinoma of the tongue. Not wishing to consider termination of her pregnancy, she underwent surgical resection, which included partial glossectomy with microvascular reconstruction. Good oral function (speech and swallowing) was restored within 2 weeks. The pregnancy proceeded relatively uneventfully to 37 weeks gestation when proteinuric hypertension necessitated induction of labour. She remains well with no evidence of recurrence. This case highlights the options available in the treatment of carcinoma of the tongue during pregnancy together with the ethical considerations required, balanced against optimising maternal outcomes.

Objective To describe the clinical presentation and obstetrical outcomes of nonthyroid head and neck cancers (HNCs), and to review literature on this rare condition in pregnancy. Study Design Pregnant women with nonthyroid HNC were identified retrospectively from 1990 to 2017. Maternal, neonatal, pregnancy, and demographic data were collected. A review of the literature from January 1980 to May 2018 was performed. Results Over the 27-year time period, 16 women with history of nonthyroid HNC were identified (9 diagnosed during and 7 diagnosed before current pregnancy). The cases were analyzed in detail and the most updated review of management of each type of HNC was provided. Conclusions HNCs are rare with diagnosis and management challenges during pregnancy. In this series, the cases diagnosed and managed previously to pregnancy presented better perinatal outcomes than the cases presented during pregnancy. The maternal outcomes appeared similar for HNC diagnosed before or after pregnancy.
