Abstract:
Laparoscopic management is the ideal form of treatment for tubal pregnancy, most common type of ectopic pregnancy. Not only abdominal pregnancy including intraligamentary pregnancy is an rare form of ectopic pregnancy, but intraligamentary pregnancies are usually diagnosed and managed by emergency explorative laparotomy. We present the case of an intraligamentary pregnancy of a 28-year-old woman managed by laparoscopic treament without any complication.
