Bilateral Pregnancy Luteoma Presenting as Acute Abdomen in a Young Female: A Case Report.

Pregnancy luteoma (PL) is a rare, non-neoplastic ovarian lesion that can mimic malignant ovarian tumors, posing significant diagnostic challenges. PL typically presents as asymptomatic, unilateral, or bilateral ovarian masses and is often discovered incidentally. Its development is linked to hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy, particularly elevated human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels. While PL generally resolves postpartum, complications such as torsion may necessitate surgical intervention. We report the case of a 23-year-old primigravida presenting with acute abdominal pain, vomiting, and abdominal distention at 13 weeks gestation. Imaging revealed large, bilateral multicystic ovarian masses. Elevated CA-125 levels raised suspicion for malignancy, leading to a laparotomy and bilateral oophorectomy. Histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of pregnancy luteoma.
