Abstract

One in 500 to 700 pregnancies in the United States are complicated by an abdominal emergency necessitating surgery. Addressing these emergencies during pregnancy presents several decision making challenges and commonly calls into question the appropriate approach for evaluation and definitive care. Ultimately, surgical intervention can be performed safely during pregnancy independent of trimester and offers definitive therapy and a quicker recovery when performed laparoscopically.
