  • Title: [Dysgerminoma of the ovary in pregnancy. A case report].
    Author: Lellé RJ, Majewski A.
    Journal: Geburtshilfe Frauenheilkd; 1985 Nov; 45(11):815-6. PubMed ID: 2934291.
    Abstract:
    A case of dysgerminoma of the ovary in a 36-year-old woman in her 10th week of gestation is reported. Hysterectomy, bilateral adnectomy and omentectomy was performed followed by radiation therapy of the pelvis and paraaortic region. Until now only about 60 cases of ovarian dysgerminoma during pregnancy have been described in literature. The tumour was rarely detected within the first trimester. In these cases the safety of the patient should rank higher than the pregnancy itself.
