BACKGROUND: A high index of suspicion and careful review of the histology are needed to recognize ovarian pregnancy. CASE: An ovarian pregnancy presented clinically as a typical tubal pregnancy; the diagnosis was missed until a careful review of the histology was repeated by the clinician and pathologist together. CONCLUSION: A missed diagnosis of ovarian pregnancy may be common without a high index of suspicion. |
