Analysis of Outcomes in Hospitalized Pregnant Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Conclusions:This is the first nationwide study to document the outcomes of pregnancy in hospitalized AML patients. AML in pregnancy is rare and this study shows that the mortality has been improving over the past 15 years. Notably, vaginal delivery has been more common than cesarian section in pregnant AML patients. Native Americans have high prevalence and high mortality rates, a likely result of healthcare disparity. Pregnant AML patients with high Charlson's comorbidity score may benefit from aggressive management of their comorbidities. Further studies are required to better characterize outcomes in pregnant women with AML.DisclosuresKota: Pfizer: Honoraria; BMS: Honoraria; Incyte: Honoraria; Xcenda: Honoraria; Novartis: Honoraria.
