[Laparoscopic management of ovarian teratoma adultum cysticum in second trimester of pregnancy (case report)].
Ovarian tumors complicating clinical course of pregnancy are rare (approximately 1 per 1000 deliveries). Conservative management, as well as surgical intervention could be associated with high risk for the mother and fetus. In this report we describe diagnosis and therapy of 26 years old primary gravida with 7 cm ovarian teratoma. Extensive ultrasound examination assessing localization and risk of malignancy of the tumor was done before operation. Laparoscopy was performed at 16 weeks gestation and no intra- and postoperative complications were observed. The outcome of the pregnancy was normal. Laparoscopic treatment of ovarian tumors during pregnancy, by experienced team, after appropriate diagnostic process, seems to be safe and effective.
