A ruptured 17 week right cornual gestation after failed termination of pregnancy
Abstract :
Cornual (interstitial) pregnancy is one of most hazardous type of ectopic pregnancy. It constitutes 2-4% of all ectopic gestations and may represent clinically stable until late gestational periods. In this case report, A ruptured right cornual gestation at the 17th week of gestation, following failed termination of pregnancy was presented. A 29-year-old woman, G2P1, presented to the emergency department with acute abdominal pain lasting for 12 hours. Her blood pressure was 50/20 mmHg, heart rate was 110 bpm. Emergent laparatomy was performed. In laparatomy, hemoperitoneum was observed. Intraoperatively, we encountered a right lateral wall ruptured uterus with a 17 week old fetus in the peritoneal cavity, suggesting a right cornual ectopic pregnancy which ended up as a catastrophic event. A cornual resection and repair was done successfully.
