Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
Borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) are neoplasms with benign and malignant characteristics, affecting young women in childbearing age. Finding incidental adnexal mass in pregnancy is more common with the use of ultrasound, incidence is about 2% to 10% of pregnancies. Treatment varies depending upon the gestational age: before 24 weeks of period of gestation treatment is usually conservative and surgical staging. Radical management is reserved to patients with suspected malignancy. A 27-years-old woman with period of gestation 32 weeks 5 days of her first pregnancy presented with ultrasound showing right adnexal mass of size 25.6cmx16.3cmx17.2cm. She underwent elective cesarean and exploratory laparotomy, surgical findings were: a preterm male baby with no obstetric complications and a right ovarian cyst with histopathological report showing mucinous epithelial cells with atypia, suggestive of ovarian borderline tumor.Right sided salphingectomy with oopherectomy done.Post operative recovery was normal.
