RESUMO
Breast cancer is the second most common form of cancer diagnosed during pregnancy. The diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer during pregnancy requires multidisciplinary efforts to treat the cancer while protecting the foetus. Pregnancy-related changes in the breast make the diagnosis particularly challenging. Surgery is possible during all three trimesters. Chemotherapy can be administered in the second and third trimesters without increased risk of foetal malformations. Radiation, endocrine and biological therapies however, must be postponed until after delivery.

Inverted nipples is an anatomical variation which can be uni- or bilateral, congenital or acquired. The degree of inversion can vary from slight to severe. Treatment can be surgical or non-surgical and should depend on the degree of functional problems. Non-surgical treatment can be beneficial, does not risk affecting sensibility, spares the lactiferous ducts, and therefore does not risk any interference with breast-feeding. Surgical options should only be considered when non-surgical treatment is insufficient.
