Abstract
Pregnancy luteomas are rare neoplasms of the ovary that are usually benign. The persumed cause of this benign neoplasm is the hormonal effects of pregnancy.They are found incidentally during imaging or surgeries like caesarean and tubal ligation (1). Usually they are asymptomatic neoplasms but there are reports of virilization of the mother or infant (2).In some cases they can cause hemorrhage or torsion.We report a case of luteoma of pregnancy that was found incidentally during the management of a middle aged female patient for pelvic inclusion cyst.
