CONCLUSIONS
The authors present a case of an exceptional ectopic gestation with a remnant portion of the tube seen at the Hospital above, with absent contralateral ovary. They discuss the etiologic factors of the ectopic gestation with contralateral corpus luteum, and suggest the possibility of internal transmigration in the case presented. They comment on the clinical severity, as the area is highly vascularized, and they also comment of the diagnosis difficulties if gestation proceeds. They discuss the treatment for ectopic gestation in general and the possible prophylactic ways of dealing with the remnant portion of the tube in ectopic gestation. They conclude that randomized studies are needed to find out what the best treatment is for the interstitial portion during salpingectomy due to ectopic gestation.
