“…4,7 The maximum number of patients of ectopic gestation were ruptured between 7 and 12 weeks (72.79%) in our case series and the approximate results had been observed by Meye J.F. et al and Odefinmi F et al 10,13 This can be explained by the fact that as the egg gets bigger and at this gestational age, the villosity development will cause tubal erosion and rupture.…”

“…1 Incidence ranges from 1 in 2000 to 1 in 60,000 deliveries and accounts for 3% of all ectopic pregnancies. 2,3 The increased incidence is because of wider use of intrauterine devices, ovulatory drugs, invitro fertilization and embryo transfer. 4 One in every nine ectopic pregnancies among intrauterine device users is an ovarian pregnancy.…”

Ectopic pregnancy occurs in 2% of all pregnancies. Primary ovarian pregnancy is a rare entity and accounts for only 0.15-3% of all ectopic gestations. It usually ends with rupture before the end of first trimester. The diagnosis is often made intraoperatively and confirmed histopathologically. A 23 year old female presented with severe hypogastric abdominal pain with no history of amenorrhea. She underwent a laprotomy and a right sided salpingo-oopherectomy and the excised material was sent for histopathological examination. Chorionic villi were seen within the ovarian stroma suggesting the likely possibility of an ovarian pregnancy. Ovarian pregnancy is rare; although awareness of this condition is important for reducing its associated morbidity and mortality. This highlights the importance of histopathology for the accurate diagnosis of this condition.
