Not enough info: This is a very specialized question and needs to be answered in the context of the image characteristics of the cyst, and how the fetus & uterus are interacting with the cyst. There are also different kinds of cyst that will impact the answer to your question. See your obstetrician to discuss.

Cyst in pregnancy: A cyst can be removed in pregnancy without needing to terminate. We remove these cysts ideally between 12 & 20 weeks. Even of it is malignant the pregnancy does not need to be terminated.
