Hemoperitoneum with an adnexal mass in reproductive age group women points to a life-threatening differential diagnosis of a ruptured ectopic pregnancy. Rarely isolated tubal pathology such tubal torsion with hematosalpinx may mimic such a picture and the diagnosis is difficult in hemodynamically compromised patients. This is a case report of isolated hematosalpinx without torsion in early pregnancy which was histologically confirmed following surgical management.
