Abstract

Introduction: Although rare, ectopic pregnancy after hysterectomy can often be misdiagnosed. Materials and Methods: We report a case of an ectopic pregnancy following subtotal caesarean hysterectomy, managed laparoscopically. Results: Post-hysterectomy ectopic pregnancy should be considered as a differential diagnosis in any woman of childbearing age presenting with abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding.
