Abstract
Ovarian tumours in pregnancy are rare, the incidence in several series being 1:1,000 to 1:8,000 (Gustafson et al., 1954). The commonest tumours are pseudomucinous cystadenomata, and benign cystic terato‐mata the second commonest. These two tumours may coexist in the same patient (Novak and Novak, 1965). Coexistent bilateral serous cystadenocarcinoma and bilateral benign cystic teratoma in pregnancy was recorded by Gleichert (1964).
