CT findings of omental pregnancy: a case report

Omental pregnancy is an extremely rare and dangerous form of ectopic pregnancy which can be very difficult to diagnose radiologically. We report the case of an 18-year-old girl with secondary omental pregnancy who was assessed by use of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT). For the first time, we report the contrast-enhanced CT features of omental pregnancy. Inhomogeneous mild enhancement was observed, which is different from other kinds of ectopic pregnancy, for which enhancement is often substantial. Possible reasons for the discrepancy are discussed, as also is differential diagnosis of omental pregnancy.
