Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Reproductive Medicine

Background:

  • Angular pregnancy is a rare, potentially life-threatening obstetric complication.
  • It involves embryo implantation in the lateral angle of the uterine cavity, medial to the uterotubal junction and round ligament.
  • Distinguishing angular from interstitial pregnancy is crucial for appropriate management.

Observation:

  • This report details a case of angular pregnancy.
  • Diagnosis was achieved using endovaginal ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Findings:

  • Endovaginal ultrasonography and MRI are effective diagnostic tools for angular pregnancy.
  • Laparoscopy can aid in guiding dilatation and curettage for angular pregnancies.

Implications:
