  • Ruptured Subcapsular Hematoma of the Liver Due to Pre‑Eclampsia Presenting As Interstitial Pregnancy and the Role of Intra‑Abdominal Packing

The similarities between the two conditions pose a diagnostic challenge, especially in an unbooked patient. We report a case of an unbooked primigravida, at 21 weeks of gestation, who arrived at a regional hospital with evidence of intra‑abdominal bleeding and hypovolemic shock. She was diagnosed as potentially having a ruptured interstitial pregnancy. During the ensuing emergency laparotomy, RSHL was discovered, the area around the ruptured liver capsule was packed with large abdominal swabs, and the patient recovered. This case report illustrates the need to consider RSHL in patients presenting with features of ruptured interstitial pregnancy, as this will assist in the planning of intraoperative care. We also describe abdominal packing and highlight the need for this essential

  • Ectopic Pregnancy Management: Tubal and Interstitial SIGNS / SYMPTOMS DIAGNOSIS
    8/29/19njm Ectopic Pregnancy Management: Tubal and interstitial SIGNS / SYMPTOMS Pain and vaginal bleeding are the hallmark symptoms of ectopic pregnancy. Pain is almost universal; it is generally lower abdominal and unilateral. Bleeding is also very common following a short period of amenorrhea. Physical exam may reveal a tender adnexal mass, often mentioned in texts, but noted clinically only 20 percent of the time. Furthermore, it may easily be confused with a tender corpus luteum of a normal intrauterine pregnancy. Finally signs and symptoms of hemoperitoneum and shock can occur, including a distended, silent, “doughy” abdomen, shoulder pain, bulging cul de sac into the posterior fornix of the vagina, and hypotension. DIAGNOSIS Initially, serum hCG rises, but then usually plateaus or falls. Transvaginal ultrasound scanning is a key diagnostic tool and can rapidly make these diagnoses: 1. Ectopic is ruled out by the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy with the exception of rare heterotopic pregnancy 2. Ectopic is proven when a gestational sac and an embryo with a heartbeat is seen outside of the uterus 3. Ectopic is highly likely if ANY adnexal mass distinct from the corpus luteum or a significant amount of free pelvic fluid is seen. When ultrasound is not definitive, correlation of serum hCG levels is important. If the hCG is above the “discriminatory zone” of 3000 mIU/ml IRP, a gestational sac should be visible on transvaginal ultrasound. The discriminatory zone varies by ultrasound machine and sonographer. If an intrauterine gestational sac is not visible by the time the hCG is at, or above, this threshold, the pregnancy has a high likelihood of being ectopic.

  • Ectopic Pregnancy
    Ectopic pregnancy Reviewed By Peter Chen MD, Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, University of Pennsylvania Medical «more » Definition An ectopic pregnancy is an abnormal pregnancy that occurs outside the womb (uterus). The baby cannot survive. Alternative Names Tubal pregnancy; Cervical pregnancy; Abdominal pregnancy Causes, incidence, and risk factors An ectopic pregnancy occurs when the baby starts to develop outside the womb (uterus). The most common site for an ectopic pregnancy is within one of the tubes through which the egg passes from the ovary to the uterus (fallopian tube). However, in rare cases, ectopic pregnancies can occur in the ovary, stomach area, or cervix. An ectopic pregnancy is usually caused by a condition that blocks or slows the movement of a fertilized egg through the fallopian tube to the uterus. This may be caused by a physical blockage in the tube. Most cases are a result of scarring caused by: y Past ectopic pregnancy y Past infection in the fallopian tubes y Surgery of the fallopian tubes Up to 50% of women who have ectopic pregnancies have had swelling (inflammation) of the fallopian tubes (salpingitis) or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Some ectopic pregnancies can be due to: y Birth defects of the fallopian tubes y Complications of a ruptured appendix y Endometriosis y Scarring caused by previous pelvic surgery In a few cases, the cause is unknown. Sometimes, a woman will become pregnant after having her tubes tied (tubal sterilization). Ectopic pregnancies are more likely to occur 2 or more years after the procedure, rather than right after it. In the first year after sterilization, only about 6% of pregnancies will be ectopic, but most pregnancies that occur 2 - 3 years after tubal sterilization will be ectopic.
