Abstract:
Reported cases of angular pregnancy, which by definition corresponds to pregnancy developing in a uterine horn, are rare. Etiologies as well as the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies are discussed. The anatomic modifications resulting from uterine fibromyoma and affecting embryo nidation in the uterine cavity of the uterus are the leading cause of angular pregnancy. The course of pregnancy depends on the evolution of the fibromyoma. Treatment therefore depends on the clinical course. Early diagnosis is essential for conservative treatment. In the case presented here, angular pregnancy was diagnosis following development of aseptic necrobiosis, the most common complication of fibromyosma.
