Ovarian fibrothecoma is a rare neoplasm. It is usually seen as a unilateral solid tumor of variable size in premenopausal women. It is mostly benign and may be functional. This article describes the diagnosis and treatment of this rare disease. We present an 18-year-old female adolescent patient with a 34-week pregnancy and a giant ovarian fibrothecoma; she underwent a cesarean section and excision of the lesion without intra- or postoperative complications.

Keywords : ovarian neoplasms; adolescent medicine; pregnancy.
