Late diagnosis of a cesarean scar pregnancy: Rare form of an ectopic pregnancy case

Abstract

Caesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy, which occurs with the placement of pregnancy to the defective myometrium area in the old cesarean scar. The incidence of CSP has been increasing in recent years because of the increasing cesarean rates and the more frequent use of transvaginal ultrasonography in early pregnancy all over the world. We present here our clinical approach in the cesarean scar pregnancy diagnosed at the 14th week of pregnancy at the age of 39, who had previously undergone 3 cesarean section operations.
