for the first b same as kpp coz ectopic pregnancy is dangerous.
for seconde ans is a as kpp coz she can handle the tumor. you can not operate without letting her know about that. It is not life threatening right now.

Well the thing is you can never remove a woman's ovary without her consent.It is another thing with an inflamed appendix or an ectopic.
