A clinical case of ovarian adenocarcinoma during pregnancy is reported. The diagnostic and therapeutic problems which may be encountered, are illustrated. The data found in the literature concerning ovarian carcinoma in pregnancy are not so many. Most authors agree for the prosecution of pregnancy, with a careful observation of the patient. Also in this case, with a careful observation, an outcome without risk for the mother and the fetus has been obtained. After one month from birth, the surgical therapy has been completed. The tumoral markers CA 125 and CA 72-4 after birth were normal. After one year from intervention, the patient is good health.
