Abstract
Primary broad ligament pregnancy is a rare form of extrauterine pregnancy with a high maternal and perinatal mortality. Early diagnosis is important to prevent life threatening hemorrhage but can be missed on antenatal ultrasonography. The diagnosis is usually established during laparotomy. We present a case of 22 year old female with ectopic gestation in broad ligament which was missed on ultrasonography and diagnosed during surgery.
