Sumario:Decidualized ovarian endometrioma is a rare phenomenon that occurs during pregnancy. A 43-year-old pregnant woman with an endometriotic cyst increased owing to desmoplasia presented to us urgently with abdominal pain and was performed a cesarean section at 36 weeks and 1 day of pregnancy. The left ovarian cyst was noted to be partially ruptured, and the pathological diagnosis was an endometriotic cyst with desmoplasia. Endometriotic cysts may enlarge during pregnancy owing to desmoplasia and rupture in the last trimester of pregnancy, causing acute abdomen.
