Md Angela Gabriela Alava Rodriguez, Md Maria Dolores Guamán Lozada and Md Luis Enrique Bueno Bruque

Ectopic molar pregnancy is very rare and of all possible locations, the uterine horn is one of the least frequent. The diagnosis represents a challenge and is made through clinical, imaging tests and serum levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin. Uterine rupture is very frequent and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, so early management is very important to prevent the development of complications. We present the case of a 24-year-old patient who was diagnosed with a molar cornual ectopic pregnancy, an abdominal hysterectomy was performed before it was complicated with uterine rupture.
