Misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis are common where the index of suspicion by the mother and health carers is low. Surgical interventions pose some risk to the fetus, especially laparotomy for abdominal tumours and procedures undertaken during the first trimester. Chemotherapy is teratogenic in the early stages, but seems to be safe in later pregnancy, and radiotherapy can be used for localised tumours remote from the uterus, such as head and neck or limb neoplasms.
