A Case Report of Abnormally High β-hCG Levels Seen in an Ovarian Ectopic Pregnancy Masquerading as a Molar Pregnancy

Ovarian ectopic pregnancies are rare, and ovarian molar pregnancies are exceptionally rare with high morbidity and mortality, requiring urgent interventions.Clinically, they have similar presentations, and ultrasound cannot accurately diagnose this rare condition.Further, -hCG levels are a poor marker, with wide variations from anticipated levels in an ectopic and molar pregnancy.We present a case of a suspected ovarian molar pregnancy and the diagnostic challenges that accompany it, prompting a need for a more accurate diagnostic tool.Such presentations run the risk of either being overcautiously over treated or these may additionally present in a seemingly innocuous manner.This might inadvertently entice the physician to take a less vigorous approach, which may have disastrous consequences.As a clinician, these cases may be exceptionally rare, it is important to entertain a bird's eye view on the investigative data and keep into consideration the possibility of this complication.
