ABSTRACT

Cornual pregnancy is rare. Treatment involves expulsion of the pregnancy and hemostasis of the cornus if required in case of hemorrhagic rupture. Two techniques are proposed to achieve hemostasis of the uterine cornus, cornuotomy with suture, or cornual resection with salpingectomy We are reporting a case of 29-year-old woman who presented to the emergency obstetrical room in a state of hypovolaemic shock. The diagnosis of a ruptured ectopic pregnancy was confirmed in view of the history of 7 weeks of amenorrhoea, with a positive pregnancy test. She was shifted for emergency exploratory laparotomy. Intraoperatively, we encountered a left cornual ectopic pregnancy. A cornual resection and left salpingectomy was done successfully.
