Abstract:
We relate 2 cases reports about rectal cancer and pregnancy. This association is rare but is a real problem of management because diagnosis is done latly and it mate have incompatibility between treatments and pregnancy. A medical bibliography has been done, to define the best medical procedure in function of the disease staging and the pregnancy term. It shows that a multi disciplinary decision must be done, which take into consideration the choice of the obstetricals, pediatricians, surgeons, and oncologists, but also the patient's choice.
