Your case does sound interesting. I have never seen an abdominal pregnancy, only read about them. Thanks for your participation.

The diagnosis can be very difficult when the patient is seen at term . Couples of clinical signs: -prolonged pregancy -perception of fetal parts at abdominal palpation(now you could add:visualisation of fetal parts) -diffuse abdominal pain -unusual fetal presentation and placental location. They key diagnosis is the identification of an empty uterus at vaginal US (the use of an hysterometer or hysterosono will help). -Extraction of the fetus is easy but the placenta is the big problem,be ready for hemorrhage and prepare for massive blood transfusion. -sometimes it' s wise to leave the placenta in the abdomen and close.It will necroses.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
