Dr Sahra Ali speaks to ecancertv at BSH 2016 about the complications facing diagnosis of AML during pregnancy.

The likelihood of developing cancer grows with age, but many women are choosing to delay pregnancy, resulting in the chance of developing cancer during pregnancy rising to match these rates.

With the safety of both mother and child at risk, Dr Ali describes complications possible during the course of pregnancy.
