The incidental discovery of ovarian cysts during pregnancy is becoming more common. The cysts discovered in the first trimester are most often functional and disappear spontaneously without complication, they are in most cases asymptomatic and can be fortuitous discovery during an ultrasound. They become symptomatic only when a complication occurs. The most common complications are cyst rupture and torsion. Pregnancy increases the risk of rupture, and the risk of abortion and ectopic pregnancy is increased when there is a combination of ovarian tumor and a gravid-puerperal state.
We report the case of a rupture of a giant hemorrhagic luteal cyst during the 1st trimester of pregnancy.
The spontaneous rupture of uterine varicose veins during pregnancy is a rare complication that can be life-threatening for the mother and the fetus, the diagnosis is difficult because of nonspecific symptomatology and is usually intraoperatively. We report the case of a uterine varicose vein rupture in the third trimester of pregnancy in a primigest, whose diagnosis is made during cesarean section indicated for acute fetal distress in early labor.
Liposarcomas of the breast are malignant tumours representing less than 0.3% of breast cancers, which can affect women aged 45 to 55 years on average, their clinical and radiological characteristics are not specific and could suggest a benign lesion. They develop from interlobular stromal tissue and there is no known risk factor of this type of cancer. The treatment of these liposarcomas remains nonconsensual, although surgery is considered the basis of treatment.
We report a case of a breast myxoid liposarcoma discovered during pregnancy.
