Ovarian cysts are primarily of follicular origin, and ovarian lymphangioma is an extremely rare lesion. Most ovarian cysts demonstrated on prenatal sonograms are asymptomatic and resolve antenatally. We report a case of ovarian torsion in utero secondary to an ovarian lymphangioma in which sonographic examination revealed a changing pattern of the cystic ovarian mass from an anechoic to echogenic appearance. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
