Abstract

Intramural pregnancy is one of the rarest form of ectopic pregnancy, with only 16 cases reported thus far. Pathologically the pregnancy is completely isolated from the uterine cavity and entirely surrounded by myometrium. It is interesting to note that a traumatic factor is almost always implicated in the cases so far reported in the literature, including curettage, cesarean section, myomectomy salpingectomy and manual removal of placenta. We have recently experienced a case of intramural pregnancy implanting in the scar of cesarean section, and report with a brief review of the literatures.

Key Words: Intramural pregnancy, Ectopic pregnancy, Cesarean section
