A 25-year-old woman was diagnosed as having the multiple fungal liver abscess which developed just after the re-induction chemotherapy, 13 months after the onset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Although chemotherapy for leukemia was suspended, her leukemia did not relapse. The multiple fungal liver abscess was successfully treated with anti-fungal drugs for the following 12 months. Three years after the onset of the fungal abscess, she married, became pregnant and vaginally delivered a healthy female infant at full term. In this way, it was demonstrated that a normal pregnancy and delivery could be expected even in patients who had received intensive chemotherapy and had recovered from the fungal abscess.
