Ectopic pregnancy in hysterectomized patients is an uncommon event and it is rarely considered in the differential diagnosis. We present the case of a 30-year-old patient with hysterectomy performed 6 years before who presented to the emergency service with a 3-day evolution of lower abdominal pain. Ultrasonography showed a gestational sac with embryo and the presence of free fluid in the Douglas sac. Histological examination of the surgical piece revealed chorionic villi and an embryo within the uterine tube.

Keywords : Ectopic pregnancy; post hysterectomy; Tubal pregnancy.
