Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Surgical Gynecology

Background:

  • Retroperitoneal ectopic pregnancy is an exceptionally rare diagnosis, comprising less than 1% of all ectopic pregnancies.
  • This specific anatomical location presents a significant risk for life-threatening hemorrhage due to the proximity of major retroperitoneal vessels.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a case of retroperitoneal ectopic pregnancy.
  • To emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and prompt surgical management for this rare condition.

Main Methods:

  • A case presentation of a 24-year-old female with symptoms of abdominal pain and fever.
  • Diagnostic workup included serum β-hCG, complete blood count, abdominal ultrasonography, and computed tomography (CT).
  • Treatment involved exploratory laparotomy for the removal of the gestational sac and embryo, supported by a literature review.

Main Results:

  • The patient presented with elevated serum β-hCG, anemia, and leukocytosis.
  • Imaging confirmed a retroperitoneal mass consistent with ectopic pregnancy.
  • Successful surgical removal of the ectopic pregnancy was achieved.

Conclusions:

  • Retroperitoneal ectopic pregnancy is a rare but critical diagnosis.
  • Early detection through serum β-hCG and imaging (ultrasound, CT) is vital.
  • Immediate surgical treatment is essential to prevent severe complications.
