Abstract

Thyroid carcinoma is the second most common malignancy in young women, after breast cancer, aged 15-34 years in Hong Kong. Radioiodine or (131)I (RAI) has been confirmed as a useful treatment in the management of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). Serious concerns have been raised of the potential risks on subsequent pregnancies. We conducted a single-institute, retrospective analysis of the gestational history of 104 patients who became pregnant after the diagnosis of DTC. The patients were interviewed for pregnancy outcome, and the data were supplemented by a review of the medical records in the Department of Clinical Oncology, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Hong Kong. Of 263 pregnancies observed, the prior RAI administration in 153 (scanning dose or ablative dose) did not adversely affect the pregnancy outcome as determined by the rate of successful delivery, mode of delivery, live birth demographics (e.g., birth weight, gender distribution). In all live births, neither congenital malformations nor first year neonatal mortality was observed. Of 116 pregnancies in 68 patients who received an ablative dose (mean, 96.6 mCi) of RAI, 78 live births were reported. The updated information on these children at age 1 month to 30.8 ye...Continue Reading
