Abstract

A sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary is an extremely rare benign tumor in pregnant women. Only 9 reports of sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary during pregnancy have been presented. A 26-year-old woman at the 10th week of gestation was explored via laparoscopic surgery. She had non-specific symptoms but high levels of the tumor marker. The pathological diagnosis was sclerosing stromal tumor of the right ovary. We report a case of sclerosing stromal tumor in a 26-year-old woman who was admitted to confirm pregnancy with a review of the literature.
