Abstract

Diagnosis of abdominal pregnancy continues to be a challenge, resulting in delays in diagnosis and decision making. We report 2 cases of abdominal pregnancy for which extended field of view sonography contributed to both diagnosis and management. The shortcomings of MRI with respect to localizing the site of placental attachment are also discussed.
