A 32-year-old pregnant woman presented to the hospital with abdominal pain and minimal vaginal bleeding. Transvaginal ultrasound revealed visible fluid in pelvic region with suspected tubal rupture, and subsequently laparoscopy was performed. During laparoscopy, additional gynecologic pathologies were noticed. Histopathologic finding showed dermoid and endometriotic cyst, as well as tubo-ovarian abscess in the same adnexa. This case report highlights the necessity of considering multiple diagnoses in the same organic system, which may be encountered by surgeon and histopathologist.
