Abstract

Caesarean scar pregnancy is one of the rarest forms of ectopic pregnancy, during which the risk of severe damage to the uterine wall and profuse bleeding, which may result in hemorrhagic shock and lethal outcome, increases dramatically. This case study discusses in detail the ectopic pregnancy developed in the area of the post-cesarean scar, its diagnosis, surgical management and postoperative care after organ-preserving surgery.
