Abstract


We report the case of a 34 year old multiparous lady who presented to emergency department with acute abdomen and bleeding pervaginum, six months after total hysterectomy. On ultrasonologic evaluation, a live ectopic pregnancy of 14 weeks with hemoperitonium was detected and this was confirmed and managed by emergency laparotomy.  High degree of suspicion is required for the diagnosis of abdominal pregnancy after a total hysterectomy to avoid delay in treatment.
