Malignant lymphoma generally does not transfer to the fetus through the placental barrier. Pregnancy complicated with malignant lymphoma requires a comprehensive weighing of the pros and cons based on the parity, severity of the disease during pregnancy, and the duration of pregnancy. Both radiotherapy and chemotherapy will have adverse effects on the mother and fetus. In early pregnancy, if the lesion is limited to or spreads below the diaphragm and the fetus cannot avoid irradiation, the pregnancy should be terminated.
