[Abdominal pregnancy with a malformed uterus (author's transl)].

The author reports a case of abdominal pregnancy in a woman with a malformed uterus after 30 weeks of amenorrhoes. The several different clinical abnormal features are detailed: threatened early labour, death in utero, inability to induce labour by several different methods, sub-acute obstruction and "rupture" of the membranes. Diagnosis was made only on laparotomy. Rupture of the uterine cornu had occurred in a bicornuate uterus with single cervix with secondary implantation of the oocyte in the abdominal cavity. The ruptured cornu was removed.
