Abstract
Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a B-cell malignant lymphoproliferative disorder occurring with a frequency of 2.2 cases per 100,000 population per year, more often in women, with a peak incidence in the range of 16-35 years. The most common type in pregnant women is classic HL, diagnosed with a frequency of 1:1000–1:6000. The authors present a review of the literature on pregnancy in patients with HL, and also describe their own experience of childbirth in 20 patients with HL, of whom 16 (80%) had the disease in the stage of stable remission, and 4 (20%) were diagnosed for the first time during pregnancy. The course of pregnancy was complicated by the development of preeclampsia in 4 (20%) patients, the threat of premature birth in 5 (25%) and anemia in 6 (30%). Delivery occurred on time in 18 (90%) cases, by caesarean section in 4 (20%) cases.
