摘要: To learn whether female cancer survivors are more likely to terminate a pregnancy by choice than other women, the occurrence of induced abortions was determined in population-based cohort 1688 childhood survivors. Proportion ratios (PRs) were estimated from ratio proportion pregnancies that resulted among (or 16 700 randomly selected population control subjects) 2737 sisters The (292 1479 [19.7%]) marginally higher but not statistically significantly different (961 5092 [18.9%]; PR = 1.08, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.96 1.22) and similar subjects (5505 27 989 [19.7%]; 1.07, CI 1.01 1.14). Survivors elect second-trimester abortion because physical mental conditions or fetal abnormalities.
