Abstract
Cesarean section (C-section) ectopic pregnancies (CSEPs) refer to the implantation of an embryo in the fibrous scar tissue from a previous cesarean section. C-section ectopic pregnancies pose a significant risk for uterine rupture and maternal morbidity, therefore early identification is imperative. Early detection and diagnosis of a CSEP can be difficult and follow-up imaging is often recommended. Recurrence in CSEPs may be observed, and this case study confirms the clinical importance of obtaining patient history in addition to a well-visualized pelvic sonogram.
