Pregnancy is a remarkable time of pronounced growth and development of the fetus. Benign pathologies outside of the uterus, including those containing hormonally responsive tissue which undergo physiologic changes and other incidentally identified lesions, may mimic malignancy on clinical evaluation and imaging. A detailed history and physical exam, ultrasound and non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging features and comparison with prior imaging if available may help to narrow the list of potential differential diagnoses. Follow-up imaging in the postpartum period is often vital to confirm benignity and, in some cases, sampling to confirm the diagnosis is necessary. This review will cover the clinical, pathological and multimodality imaging features of numerous potential mimickers of cancer in the setting of pregnancy organized by organ systems. The goal is to better equip abdominal radiologists to accurately identify benign disease and help guide further imaging or follow-up recommendations to avoid unnecessarily aggressive intervention and improve patient care.
