Abstract

Intramural pregnancy is the rarest type of ectopic pregnancy and almost always is diagnosed intraoperatively. It constitutes less than 1% of ectopic pregnancies and the world literature contains only 33 cases. We present an additional case of an uncomplicated intramural pregnancy in a patient with extensive adenomyosis, which is the earliest preoperatively diagnosed (sixth week of gestation) case in the literature.
