Introduction
The abdominal location for an ectopic pregnancy is one of the rarest forms at 0.9–
1.4% of all ectopic pregnancies and can present a challenge with diagnosis. Abdominal ectopic
pregnancies carry a higher risk of mortality because of hemorrhaging and injury to surrounding
organs.
Conclusion
We aim to highlight the diagnostic challenges posed by these cases, which can lead to
increased morbidity and mortality .
