Clinics in diagnostic imaging (133). Retained placenta from an intra-abdominal pregnancy.
Journal Title: Singapore Medical Journal - Year 2011, Vol 52, Issue 1
Abstract
A 29-year-old Indonesian woman presented with abdominal pain seven months after an intra-abdominal pregnancy. Ultrasonography revealed a cystic mass in the pelvis and magnetic resonance imaging showed an umbilical stump within it, indicating a retained placenta. This was removed surgically, and on histology, an infarcted placenta was confirmed.
