Abstract

Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a form of ectopic pregnancy in which implantation occurs in a scar due to a previous cesarean section. With the progression of pregnancy and growth of the gestational sac, the implantation site will rupture if the muscle layer covering the chorion is thin, resulting in massive bleeding. Thus, careful maternal management is necessary. We herein report our experience of a case of miscarriage in a woman with CSP.
