Abstract: Abdominal pregnancies account for 1 percent of ectopic pregnancies and can be life threatening. Because of the variable locations in abdomen, abdominal pregnancies are associated with a wide range of signs and symptoms and thus, a high index of suspicion is important for their timely diagnosis. We share our experience of a unique case of recurrent abdominal pregnancy of covert origin and its diagnostic and management challenges.
