Bilateral Krukenberg tumor in a 16-week pregnant woman.

The authors present the case of a G2P1001 who presented in 16-week gestation with bilateral Krukenberg tumor, abdominal pain, and iterative vomiting episodes. Although a few cases of Krukenberg tumor in pregnant women have been reported, no case reports asymptomatic and free of disease at 18 months were found in the English literature. Early detection followed by surgery and chemotherapy during pregnancy could possibly result in a favorable outcome in such patients.
