Background: Molar pregnancy is a rare condition; its ectopic
form is even rarer occurring in 1.5 per 1,000,000 pregnancies.Aim:We report a case of ectopic molar pregnancy located
in the fallopian tube and draw attention to the importance of systematic
histological examination in any ectopic pregnancy.Case report: A 32-year-old primigravida woman presented with
metrorrhagia in a context of about 2 months of amenorrhea. An ectopic pregnancy
was diagnosed by ultrasonography. A Laparotomy was performed and a ruptured
left ampullary ectopic pregnancy was found, and a total left salpingectomy was
performed. The pathologic examination and the histological examination show an aspect of a partial molar ectopic
tubal pregnancy. Conclusion:
