Abstract EN
Ovarian pregnancy is a rare type of ectopic pregnancy.
We report an ovarian ectopic pregnancy at the right ovary.
A thirty-eight year old woman presented with amenorrhea for six weeks and lower abdominal pain.
Beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (BHCG) was 2290 IU.
Imaging revealed a mass at the right adnexa about 3 x 2.5 cm and blood clots were adherent to the uterus.
The mass was removed through emergency laparoscopy.
Pathology revealed ovarian pregnancy.
Serial monitoring of BHCG level to confirm the complete removal of placental tissue was done.
