Abstract
Gynecologic disease during pregnancy has various effects on and changes by pregnancy according to diagnoses. With recent advancement in diagnostic techniques such as ultrasonography, it makes possible for some disease to diagnose accurately. By predicting complication and treating appropriately, not only treatment but also prognosis can be improved. This study aims to investigate the effect of benign gynecologic disease on pregnancy, diagnosis, and treatment when associated with pregnancy.
