Abstract

The incidence of cancer during pregnancy is increased in recent years. The rate of increase is attributed to, not only higher rate of cancer in general, but also to a delay in child-bearing age. We report such an uncommon case of pregnancy with malignant ovarian tumor. Our case is a 26 years 2nd gravida presented at 32 weeks of her pregnancy with acute abdomen in emergency department of BBMH, USTC. A thorough clinical examination and investigation revealed pregnancy with ovarian tumor with sub-acute intestinal obstruction. The patient is treated with surgery followed by chemotherapy. Now the patient is normal without evidence of disease upto 12 months with a healthy Baby. The case is selected due to the rarity of the condition and the diagnostic dilemma when it presents during pregnancy.
