Abstract

This study consists of six accurately diagnosed and treated cases of abdominal pregnancy over a 16-year period (1974-1989) in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Cukurova University Medical Faculty in Adana. In this study the incidence of abdominal pregnancy we found was 1 per 4,017 births. In two cases whose pregnancies continued until term, living babies were delivered. The separation of placenta was easy in four cases. However in the other two cases, the management of placenta detachment was difficult because of the stick adhesions with visseria; so in these cases the placenta tissues were left in the abdomen. The methotrexate was administered to eroze to the placenta in these cases. One of them who received methotrexate died of infection.
