Abstract:

  Abstract   A32 year-old multigravid patient with 10 weeks of pregnancy was referred to the emergency ward with massive vaginal bleeding and preshock state. Suction curettage, laparotomy, uterine artery ligation, Macdonald cerclage, and hysterectomy was done, in that order. After hysterectomy and massive transfusion she recovered. When a diagnosis of cesarean scar pregnancy is made in the emergency state and especially in the presence of underlying disease, morbidity is high and fertility lost.

Ectopic Pregnancy in Cesarean Section Scar

Pregnancy implantation within the scar of a previous cesarean delivery is one of the rarest locations for an ectopic pregnancy. Early diagnosis of this condition with the use of ultrasound imaging allows for preserving the uterus and subsequent fertility. However, a delay in either diagnosis or treatment can lead to uterine rupture, hysterectomy and significant maternal morbidity. With increasi...
