ABSTRACT
@#<p style="text-align justify;">Abdominal pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy. This type of pregnancy poses a difficult situation since it can incur high morbidity to mother and the fetus. Diagnosis is often difficult and surgical management should be multidisciplinary in approach. This paper presents a case 29-year-old who presents as missed abortion, subsequently diagnosed with abdominal pregnancy. Embolization of major vessels prior to evacuation of products of conception in abdominal pregnancy is a management option to prevent catastrophic complications such as hemorrhage.</p>
