Uterine fibroids are the commonest tumors in women of child bearing age. These often lead to significant morbidity especially in young women. The most common symptoms associated with leiomyomas are heavy menstrual bleeding, chronic pelvic pain, infertility pressure symptoms, and repeated abortions.Fibroids can cause infertility by distorting the uterine cavity thereby preventing fertilization or implantation of the fertilized ovum.

The incidence of ‘Caesarean scar ectopic pregnancy’ has been increasing in recent times. Probably the rising caesarean rate around the world responsible for it. We are reporting three cases of Caesarean scar ectopic pregnancies, suspected clinically and confirmed by sonography of the uterus.

Case one was operated by open laparotomy, case two underwent laparoscopy and case three was managed with medical treatment without surgery. Uterus could be saved in all three cases.
