Abstract
Omental pregnancy is an extremely rare and dangerous form of ectopic pregnancy which can be very difficult to diagnose radiologically We report the case of an 18yearold girl with secondary omental pregnancy who was assessed by use of contrastenhanced computed tomography CT For the first time we report the contrastenhanced CT features of omental pregnancy Inhomogeneous mild enhancement was observed which is different from other kinds of ectopic pregnancy for which enhancement is often substantial Possible reasons for the discrepancy are discussed as also is differential diagnosis of omental pregnancy
