Ectopic Pregnancy with Lithopedion Formation: Case Report

Lithopedion is a rare obstetric complication, corresponding to an ectopic pregnancy (usually abdominal in location) that progresses beyond the first trimester to fetal death and calcification. We report a case of a 30-year-old woman who was referred to our facility complaining of abdominal swelling and heaviness for 3 years which was preceded by a history of positive urine pregnancy test. CT scan of abdomen and pelvis showed calcified intra-abdominal (omental) mass which was confirmed a lithopedion by laparotomy with excision.
