Omental pregnancy is a rare form of abdominal ectopic pregnancy associated with high mortality. Diagnosis is often made intraoperatively when normal pelvic organs are found in surgeries done for ectopic pregnancy. A 31 year old lady underwent exploratory laparotomy for ruptured ectopic pregnancy. Intraoperatively, 600mls haemoperitoneum was present but the uterus, bilateral fallopian tubes and ovaries were all normal. After careful surgical exploration, location of ectopic pregnancy was found to be at the omentum.
