Abstract

Abdominal pregnancy is a very rare form of ectopic pregnancy following IVF-ET procedure. Because the symptoms of abdominal pregnancy is not typical, it is difficult to diagnose early and the mortality rate is higher than other ectopic pregnancies. Liver, spleen, omentum and diaphragm are main implantation sites of abdominal pregnancy. We reported an unusual first case of an etopic pregnancy on uterosacral ligament following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer with brief review of literature.

시험관아기 시술 후 발생한 복강임신은 난관이나 난소 이외에 생기는 매우 드문 자궁외 임신으로 다른 자궁외 임신에 비해 특이증상이 없기 때문에 진단이 어려울 뿐만 아니라 높은 사망률을 보인다. 복강임신이 생기는 대표적인 부위는 간, 비장, 장간막, 횡격막 등이 보고된 바 있다. 본 저자들은 시험관아기 시술 후 발생한 복강임신 중 자궁천골인대에 발생한 자궁의 임신을 간단한 문헌고찰과 함께 최초로 보고하는 바이다.
