Cureus. 2021 Jun 5;13(6):e15455. doi: 10.7759/cureus.15455. eCollection 2021 Jun.

Abstract

Fallopian tubal molar pregnancy is extremely rare, and the main diagnostic tool is the post-operative histopathological diagnosis, as the pre-operative diagnosis is difficult. We report a case of ectopic partial molar pregnancy in the right fallopian tube of a 35-year-old lady that was sent for routine histopathological examination with the clinical diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy and the histopathology report revealed an unusual result.

Keywords: fallopian tubes; histopathology examination; hydatidi form moles; ruptured ectopic pregnancy; surgical acute abdomen.
