Abstract
|
|
|
|
Abdominal pregnancy is a rare variation of ectopic pregnancy, which has been classified as primary or secondary. The clinical characteristics of abdominal pregnancy are extremely variable, so early diagnosis is very difficult. Because of high maternal morbidity and mortality, the prompt surgical intervention is required. Omental pregnancy is a very rare form of abdominal pregnancy, which is hard to detect early. The diagnosis of omental pregnancy is hardly ever made prior to laparotomy. We have experienced a case of omental pregnancy in a 36-year-old woman and report this case with brief review of literature.
