Abstract :

We report a case of scar ectopic pregnancy which is the rarest type of all ectopic pregnancies. We need to diagnose & treat this condition in the early weeks of pregnancy to avoid the complication. This case of Caesarean scar ectopic pregnancy (CSEP) was diagnosed during an antenatal ultrasound scan, at six weeks of pregnancy. An ultrasound scan of this case revealed the gestation sac in the lower uterine segment at the previous caesarean scar.
