Abstract
This is a new case report of a primary abdominal pregnancy with a full-term live baby in a 26 yr old women. The diagnosis was only made at laparotomy. The premature placental separation was followed by massive haemorrhage. Over a period of five days, the patient required a transfusion of 139 blood units and nine surgical explorations before control of the bleeding site could be obtained. Control of the haemorrhage could only be obtained with massive transfusions of fresh platelets and biological monitoring of coagulation by specialized laboratories. This case confirmed the diagnostic difficulties and the need to leave the placenta in situ until control of bleeding sites can be obtained.
