| Popis: | Molar pregnancy can occur outside the uterine cavity. Ectopic molar pregnancy although a rare entity does exist. The patient presents with features similar to ruptured or unruptured ectopic gestation. Management requires surgical removal of the conceptus and follow-up. Diagnosis with histopathological examination of the specimen is the gold standard. Here, we report an unusual case of 30 years female with a left tubal partial hydatidiform mole. The initial suspicion was made with preoperative raised serum beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin levels and the diagnosis was confirmed with the histopathological examination of the specimen. The patient was followed up with serial weekly serum beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin monitoring and remission was achieved. Therefore, sending samples for histopathological examination after surgical management of ectopic pregnancy is mandatory to detect molar ectopic pregnancy in order to make a proper follow-up and to prevent persistent gestational trophoblastic diseases. |
