Successful outcome in a rare case of live post-term ovarian pregnancy

Ovarian ectopic is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy and reaching up to term is an extreme rarity. It is usually diagnosed incidentally when a cesarean section is done for other obstetric causes. Being highly vascular, it may result in obstetric catastrophes. We report first live post-term ovarian pregnancy well managed with multidisciplinary approach. A 35-year multigravida at 44 weeks presented with a diagnosis of placenta percreta. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested abdominal pregnancy with a live fetus. On laparotomy, it was live ovarian ectopic with placenta attached to left infundibulopelvic vessels and later confirmed on histological examination. Ovarian ectopic is best diagnosed in the first trimester by ultrasound and managed by laparoscopy or laparotomy. It is usually misdiagnosed as an abdominal pregnancy at term even with the use of high-end technology. It always poses a dilemma for clinicians. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging helps in the planning of surgery with all precautionary measures and counseling of patients.
