Secondary abdominal pregnancy: A case report

Abstract

Abdominal pregnancy is a type of ectopic pregnancy where the gestational sac is implanted in the peritoneal cavity. It may be either a primary or a secondary abdominal pregnancy. Secondary abdominal pregnancies result due to early rupture of tubal ectopic pregnancy into the peritoneal cavity. Here we present a case of 28 year old G3P2L2 who presented to our hospital with secondary abdominal pregnancy with a dead fetus.
