Abstract

Cesarean scar ectopic pregnancy is a complex iatrogenic pathology occurring in 1:1,800 to 1:2,200 of all pregnancies. It is associated with high maternal morbidity and mortality; therefore, early diagnosis and effective management are of utmost signicance. Symptoms include amenorrhea, pelvic pain and vaginal bleeding in the rst trimester. The investigation of choice is transvaginal ultrasound. In equivocal cases, magnetic resonance imaging can help in conrming the diagnosis. Treatment modalities are dictated by the case presentation, gestational age and size, type of implantation, hemodynamic stability, and patient's desire for future fertility. We report a rarest case of caesarean scar ectopic pregnancy managed by conservative surgical approach after failed medical management
