A second nationwide survey was conducted to determine the outcome of pregnancy in long-term survivors of @entity3052 and to clarify the influence of treatment on the offspring of long-term survivors. In July 1996, 336 survey responses were received from the 498 Japanese institutions surveyed. A total of 89 cases (39 spouses of male @entity1 and 50 female @entity1 ) who had babies during their first remission were analyzed, including 43 @entity1 from the first survey in 1991. Median age at the birth of first baby was 30.7 years for male @entity1 and 28.6 years for female @entity1 . A total of 109 of the 117 pregnancies resulted in live births and eight resulted in abortions. A total of 58 cases had single @entity1 and 23 cases had two or more, generally from separate pregnancies, but including two pairs of twins. The @entity1 was male in 59 cases, female in 37 and gender was not reported in 13 cases. Ages of @entity1 ranged from 2 months to 20 years at the time of this study and all @entity1 were in good health. There were two minor anomalies, both of which were surgically corrected. Of the 81 parents bearing live @entity1 , 75 remained in complete remission. Five fathers died (four of relapse and one of another disease). In conclusion, there was no apparent @entity14422 or @entity154 in the @entity1 of long-term survivors with @entity3052 .
