Abstract
|
|
|
Intramural pregnancy, implanted in the previous cesarean section scar, is one of the rare and dangerous forms of ectopic pregnancies, because a delay in either diagnosis or treatment can lead to uterine rupture, hysterectomy, or significant maternal morbidity, due to severe hemorrhaging. With the development of transvaginal ultrasound and MRI, early diagnosis and conservative treatment of intramural pregnancy is possible. For young patients who wish to maintain their fertility, an earlier diagnosis and more conservative treatment are desirable. We experienced a case of intramural pregnancy
developed in the previous cesarean section scar and successfully treated it with conservative management. So we report this case with a brief review of literature.
