Abstract
► We present a rare case of a PYY-positive primary strumal carcinoid tumor of the ovary during pregnancy. ► MRI was useful for the preoperative diagnosis, and the prenatal course was uneventful after the operation. ► Colitis due to severe constipation caused by PYY, which is an inhibitor of intestinal mobility, might induce serum CEA elevation.
