Dysgerminoma is the most common malignant germ cell tumor of the ovary, accounting for approximately 3∼5% of all ovarian malignancies. However, disgerminoma complicating pregnancy is not very uncommon. Furthermore, torsion and ruptured dysgerminoma in pregnancy is rare complication during the third trimester of pregnancy.
