Abstract
- Abdominal pregnancy is a very rare case consisting 1% of ectopic pregnancy and occurring once in 372-9714 of normal pregnancies. However, the possibility of massive bleeding which is a main cause of maternal death can lead to the death rate of 5.1 in every 1000 cases and is certainly a difficult subject in proceeding laparoscopic procedures. Here we are reporting with a brief review, an experienced case where an abdominal pregnancy is successfully treated with laparoscopy without massive bleeding or any other complications.
