Abstract:
Benign causes of maternal virilization in pregnancy, such as luteoma of pregnancy and hyperreactio luteinalis, are generally believed to resolve completely post partum and not to recur. We present the fifth case in the literature of recurrent maternal virilization in pregnancy. These lesions should be viewed as potentially recurrent and cases should be managed accordingly.
