Summary: BACKGROUND: Ectopic molar pregnancy is a gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) of rare occurrence and therefore not always remembered as a diagnostic possibility. CASE: We describe a case of molar ectopic pregnancy in a primiparous woman who developed gestational trophoblastic neoplasia and required chemotherapy to achieve remission. CONCLUSION: This case stresses the important role of histopathologic examination in establishing a diagnosis of ectopic molar pregnancy. Moreover, close follow-up of human chorionic gonadotropin levels is required when a GTD is suspected. © Journal of Reproductive Medicine®, Inc.
