It has been reported that malignant ovarian tumor is complicated in a ratio of one to 25,000 pregnancies. In the present study, a 22-year-old, nulliparous woman was presented, who had had her right ovary extirpated for serous cystadenoma (low potential for malignancy) and had undergone chemotherapy previously. Seven years later, she was subjected to celiotomy in the fourth month of gestational age because of left ovarian tumor. Intraoperative work-up disclosed a mucinous cystadenoma (low potential for malignancy) of stage Ia (FIGO). Left salpingo-oophorectomy and omentectomy were undertaken, and fetus-bearing uterus was preserved for the sake of the patient. Serum CA 19-9, with a preoperative level of 106.7 U/ml, fell exponentially into the normal range one month after the operation, and she successfully gave birth to a baby at term. After that, combination chemotherapy was instituted against an elevated level of CA 19-9, and she has been in remission while caring for her child.
