If a mild torsion is suspected then you should keep your fingers crossed. You may have to go for an emergency ovariotomy. Otherwise a 4 cm ovarian cyst doesn't need to be removed in its own right.

In pregnancy it is not advisable to remove any ovarian cyst if not causing any problem
In case of torsion you definitely have to go for an emergency surgery as left untreated it can be detrimental
