Abstract
Ectopic decidua although uncommon, may present a diagnostic dilemma. We present a case of a 33 year old primigravida lady with a history of endometriosis who was noted to have abnormal appearance of the ovaries and sigmoid serosa during Caesarean section. Histology revealed extensive stromal decidualisation.
