Abdominal pregnancy is very rare, with only a few gynecologists being fortunate to encounter it all through their professional careers. It makes up only 1% of all ectopic pregnancies but has very high perinatal and maternal mortality of 95% and 18% respectively. Hemorrhagic and infectious complications account for these. Removal of the placenta at laparotomy is a big dilemma as torrential bleeding may ensue.
Case
We report the case of an undergraduate teenager who was referred with features of septicemia and anemia following unsafe vaginal instrumentation by a patent medicine dealer (a person without formal training in pharmacy but sells orthodox medications on retail basis) in a bid to terminate an extrauterine pregnancy. Ultrasonography confirmed a nonviable abdominal pregnancy of 20 weeks.
Result
She had exploratory laparotomy with the evacuation of the dead fetus and successful complete removal of the placenta. Her postoperative recovery was uneventful.
Conclusion
In view of the grave complications like a pelvic abscess, disseminated intravascular coagulation and bowel obstruction that may accompany retention of the placenta in advanced abdominal pregnancy, optimal placental removal at surgery is recommended whenever feasible.
