Diagnosis of acute abdomen in pregnancy is still a difficult
situation. Due to physiological and anatomical changes of a pregnant
woman during pregnancy, the diagnosis and treatment can be difficult
to decide. In addition, some of the procedures used for the diagnosis
are avoided because of risk to the fetus. Delay in the diagnosis may
cause maternal morbidity, mortality, risk of fetal loss and can cause
premature birth. Surgical intervention may be required or surgical
intervention may be harmful in some cases. The incidence of acute
abdomen in pregnancy has been reported as 1 in 500-635. Among
the causes of nonobstetric acute abdomen in pregnancy are: acute
appendicitis, intestinal obstruction, acute cholecystitis, cholelithiasis,
inflammatory bowel disease, peptic ulcer, acute pancreatitis, hepatic
rupture, intestinal obstruction, acute fatty liver of pregnancy and
severe preeclampsia. The life of the mother and fetus are important
in the diagnosis and treatment. Early diagnosis and treatment are
very important for the fetus and the mother.
