Abstract

Abstract : Cesarean scar pregnancy is a very rare form of pregnancy and a life‐threatening situation. It has become an important and serious problem over the last 10 years, as a result of the worldwide increase in cesarean births. In this retrospective series, the diagnosis of cesarean scar pregnancy, management, treatment methods, risk factors, and possibility of subsequent normal pregnancy are discussed, and case descriptions are presented.
