Rare association of the ovarian adenocarcinoma with pregnancy: A case report

The association of ovarian malignancy with pregnancy is rare; accounting for 3–6% of ovarian masses of which malignant germ cell tumors represent the type most frequently associated with pregnancy, whereas the incidence of epithelial ovarian cancer is only 1/12,000 to 1/50,000 of pregnancies. The diagnosis and management of ovarian cancer in pregnancy remain poorly codified because of the rarity of cases and the limited data available on this pathology.
