Dysgerminoma and pregnancy
Abstract
Dysgerminomas are the most common of primitive germ cell tumors of the ovary, accounting for 1-5% of all ovarian malignancies. The reproductive age group females are
most commonly aff ected, thereby causing problems in conception and if pregnancy occurs, it leads to feto-maternal compromise. It is extremely rare to have a successful
natural pregnancy, with viable child birth with a coexisting dysgerminoma, without any assisted reproductive interventions. We hereby report a case of successful spontaneous natural pregnancy in a primi gravida, associated with dysgerminoma, with no feto-maternal compromise. We presented a case of a 23-year-old pregnant woman with a large dysgerminoma originated from the right ovary. A cesarean section was performed at 34 + 6 weeks gestation. patient delivered a healthy girl.
