Abstract

Abdominal pregnancy represents a grave risk to the health of the pregnant woman. This is a case report of a 24-year-old primipara with repeated secondary abdominal pregnancy following ruptured tubal ectopic pregnancy. She had past history of heterotropic pregnancy following ovulation induction therapy. She delivered preterm quadruplets at home and visited the maternity hospital 1month 15 days later with acute abdomen. It was a secondary abdominal pregnancy from a ruptured rudimentary horn of a unicornuate uterus and live term female baby was delivered from the peritoneal cavity. It is a very rare condition. Mother and baby survived after such a catastrophe.
