Brief Summary
The goal of this observational study is to investigate whether there are any prenatal ultrasound features that may predict the need for postnatal surgery versus spontaneous regression of such formations, so that better counseling can be provided to parents even in the prenatal period.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Association between ovarian cyst characteristics and the performance of cyst excision surgery on the newborn.
The outcome of the primary aim will be the percentage of infants who underwent surgery vs those in whom the formation went into spontaneous regression
Up to 100 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Postnatal Outcomes
Up to 100 weeks
Changes in the ultrasonographic features of the cyst in the prenatal period
up to 100 weeks
Type of cyst on histologic examination in case of surgery
Up to 100 weeks
Mode and type of surgery
Up to 100 weeks
