A pregnant 26-year-old woman presented with an asymptomatic 10-cm left ovarian mass diagnosed at 19 weeks gestation. On removal, the tumor was shown to be a cribriform variant of basal cell salivary adenoma with no other teratomatous or germ cell tumor elements present. The pregnancy continued uneventfully to term and the patient remains symptom-free 10 months after diagnosis. Tissues of salivary type are occasionally observed within mature cystic teratomas of the ovaries and are presumed to have given rise to the present lesion, which is thought to be the first reported case of a neoplasm of salivary type arising in the ovaries.
