“…A 5 mm telescope is good enough for diagnostic purposes to confirm hemoperitoneum or locate the ectopic pregnancy. [5][6][7][8][9] The patient had her family completed with no desire of future pregnancy, so the contralateral fallopian tube was also removed considering the fact that it appeared edematous and it could have acted as a nidus for a recurrent ectopic pregnancy in future. The histopathogical report confirmed the presence of inflammation in both fallopian tubes and appendix too, confirming the diagnosis.…”

Background: The simultaneous occurrence of appendicitis and ectopic pregnancy is very rare. It is still not clear whether they are having a common etiology in background or the reported cases have been a mere coincidence. Case: We present a case in which the patient had simultaneous right tubal chronic ectopic pregnancy with appendicitis that was managed successfully by laparoscopic route. Conclusion: Although the combination of ectopic pregnancy and appendicitis is quite rare, it is advisable to rule out concurrent appendicitis in patients of ectopic pregnancy, especially if it is on the right side due to a possible inter-etiological relationship.

L'association d'une appendicite aigue et une grossesse extra utérine est rare, seulement une vingtaine de cas ont été rapportés dans la littérature. Nous présentons un cas d'une patiente de 27 ans opérée pour suspicion de grossesse extra utérine droite, le diagnostic d'appendicite aigue a été fait en peropératoire devant la constatation d'un appendice enflé accolé à la masse latéroutérine. A travers ce cas rapporté et une revue de la littérature, nous mettons le point sur la nécessité de penser à l'appendicite aigue associée devant un tableau évoquant une grossesse extra utérine surtout à droite en raison de la relation étiopathogénique entre ces deux pathologies responsables de douleurs aigues bien que leur association reste rare.

Tubal ligation is a permanent voluntary form of contraception in which a woman's fallopian tubes are surgically cut or blocked off to prevent pregnancy. The procedure is a common method for achieving permanent sterilization and can be done at a Caesareansection or at a mini-laparotomy either immediately postpartum or as an interval procedure.Case Report: To report the case of a 35year old woman (G3P2) who was successfully managed for ectopic pregnancy after a bilateral tubal ligation, and review the literature on this rare complication and its management.Conclusion: This case has demonstrated that even though ectopic pregnancy after bilateral tubal ligation is uncommon, sterilization does not invariably confer permanent infertility in all cases.
