Abstract: | Twelve cases of ovarian cysts are reported. The diagnosis was made antenatally by ultrasound scan. The authors consider the ultrasonic images of these cysts and signs of in-utero torsion, the antenatal and postnatal evolution, the pathological findings at surgery, and the histological results for six children that were operated. A review of the literature enables us to describe the possible complications in the evolution of this tumor and to discuss the perinatal management of the ovarian cyst, which depends on the appearance and diameter of the cyst and on its evolution.Offprint requests to: J.
