Abstract
We present a rare case in which therapy of primary ovarian pregnancy, using laparoscopic laser surgery (videolaseroscopy), was successfully performed without the need of laparotomy. Because operative laparoscop y has the benefits of reduced morbidity, reduced hospitalization and r apid recovery, and because it has the advantage of reducing postoperat ive adhesions as compared to laparotomy, it is the preferable techniqu e for treatment of ovarian gestation after a laparoscopic diagnosis, e specially for a woman who desires to preserve her fertility potential.
