Abstract

Cornual pregnancy is extremely rare life-threatening condition. It is an enigma which requires careful approach for accurate diagnosis and treatment. We are presenting interesting case of cornual pregnancy which prior to diagnosis was posted for MTP by suction evacuation and laparoscopic tubal ligation. The most important lesson learnt is that if product of conception is not coming on suction and evacuation of intrauterine pregnancy confirmed priorly by ultrasonography, one must think of cornual pregnancy.
