Abstract:
Of the various types of ectopic pregnancies that have been reported, the retroperitoneal implantation probably represents the rarest. A search of the literature reveals only three other cases that appear to be true retroperitoneal pregnancies. We have experienced a case of the true retroperitoneal ectopic pregnancy, which was seen to be adherent to the anteromedial aspect of the left kidney. We report the case with a brief review of literatures.
