Abstract

Pregnancy in abdominal cavity is an unusual type of ectopic pregnancy having excessive illness as well as death for the mother and the unborn baby. Identification and management may present several complications, particularly in low-resource centers. A higher level of doubt is crucial in making a timely diagnosis in these cases. A 25-year-old third gravida patient was shifted to a tertiary care center in the city on the advice of failed induction. Her previous attempt of abortion procedure failed. It was observed from her ultrasonography that her right lower abdominal cavity contained single deformed fetus with no cardiac activity. After successful laparotomy, the mass was removed from in between uterus and urinary bladder. This situation shows that several pregnancies of abdomen could be supervised properly. A case is presented here where a pregnancy in abdomen was productively taken care of by operational laparotomy. The patient had a healthy recovery. This occurrence shows that operative laparotomy is a secure substitute for the supervision of appropriately designated patients in midtrimester pregnancy in abdomen.
