Angular Pregnancy a Case Report
Angular pregnancy though rare yet is an important entity since it is associated with complications during pregnancy and delivery such as persistent pelvic pain and bleeding, spontaneous abortion, uterine rupture, abnormal placental implantation, post partum hemorrhage and maternal death (1). Due to lack of clinical understanding, angular pregnancy does not appear to be recognized as a clinical entity and, many cases are likely to go undiagnosed. Here we report a case of a 27 yr old primi who was referred to our hospital for termination of pregnancy in view of anomalous baby, presented with severe abdominal pain and vomiting after induction of labour. She underwent emergency laparotomy in view of threatened rupture and, surprisingly it turned out to be a conceptus of 20 wk angular pregnancy implanted in the right angle of the uterine cavity.
