Résumé

Cet article aborde la question de l’impact psychologique de la situation de cancer chez la femme en période périnatale. Les auteurs réalisent dans un premier temps une revue de la littérature abordant les enjeux de la rencontre entre cancer et maternité. Par la suite, ils exposent leurs réflexions autour de deux études de cas qualitatives qui illustrent l’hypothèse d’un système d’influence réciproque entre ces deux dynamiques psychiques antagonistes : l’ajustement à la maladie et le processus de maternalité.

Abstract

This article deals with the question of psychological impact of the discovery of a cancer disease in women experiencing the perinatal period. The authors first review the scientific literature on the convergence between cancer and motherhood. They present then their understanding on this topic by describing and discussing two qualitative case studies that illustrate the hypothesis of a mutual influence between these two antagonistic processes: psychic adjustment to the disease and the motherhood process.
