“…Early rupture of tubal ectopic pregnancy is the usual antecedent of a secondary abdominal pregnancy, as reported by Shanbhag and Singh, 6 whereas advanced secondary abdominal pregnancy has been reported by Desai et al 7 and also till term by Farhet and Roohi. 8 In advanced pregnancy, diagnosis of the condition can be difficult. The routine means of diagnosis are a high level of suspicion, and careful clinical and ultrasound examinations through CT scan and MRI can be useful.…”

Background: Abdominal pregnancy is defined as pregnancy in the peritoneal cavity, excluding the tubes, ovary, and broad ligament. It is a rare and a life-threatening condition with an increased risk of maternal and perinatal mortality. It can be primary or secondary. Primary abdominal pregnancy can be differentiated by using Studdiford's criteria which include that the tubes and ovaries are normal at laparotomy, no evidence of uteroperitoneal fistula, and the presence of pregnancy closely related to the peritoneal surface and early enough to eliminate the possibility of secondary implantation after primary tubal nidation whereas in secondary abdominal pregnancy occurs following an extrauterine tubal pregnancy that ruptures or aborts and gets re-implanted within the abdomen. Here, we present a rare case of full-term live secondary abdominal pregnancy which was referred to us at SN Medical College, Agra, who was a 22-year-old primigravida and gave birth to a healthy female child of 2.7 kg in which placenta was removed after ligating the cornual stump, and left-sided salpingectomy was performed.
