Incidental pregnancy luteoma: A case report

Introduction: Pregnancy luteoma is a physiologic pseudotumor of ovary because of hormonal influence during pregnancy. It will regress spontaneously after delivery. Awareness of this process will assist to get the correct diagnosis at the right clinical context and lead to the appropriate management and follow-up for the patient. Case Report: This is a brief case report on a multiparous pregnant woman who underwent emergent cesarean section and found an incidental right ovarian mass. Cystectomy was done for pathological evaluation, and the histomorphology and immunohistochemistry suggested pregnancy luteoma. Neither the patient nor her infant did not manifest any sign and symptoms including virilization effect during the hospital stay. Conclusion: The clinician and pathologist need to be aware of this physiological process in pregnant women and its possible complications.
