Background: Ectopic pregnancy complicates 2% of all pregnancies, and accounts for 6% of pregnancy-related mortality [1]. It ends with rupture before the end of the first trimester [2].
Case Report: We report a case of a 27 yr old primigravida with unruptured left ovarian ectopic pregnancy treated with a wedge resection of ovary laparoscopically. Post-operative period of the patient was uneventful.
Conclusion: Ovarian pregnancies are rare, and unruptured ovarian pregnancies are rarer. Early detection and treatment plays an important role in prevention of serious complications.
