Abstract

Ovarian pregnancy is a very rare of extrauterine pregnancy, and it`s is difficult to diagnose prior to surgery and distinguished from distal tubal pregnancy. In past, traditional treatment for ovarian pregnancy was oophrectomy or salphigooophrectomy. However if patients are young, and desire of future childbearing, recently conservative managements such as wedge resection or removal of only gestational products are performed. Furthermore according to development of laparoscopic operation, laparoscopic consevative surgery is more preferred now. We report a case of ovarian pregnancy that treated by only removal of gestational product under the operative laparoscopy and postoperative methotrexate single therapy.
