Abstract

Lithopedion is a rare obstetrical outcome of an undiagnosed and untreated advanced abdominal pregnancy, mostly found incidentally. We present a case of lithopedion. In a 76 year-old female suffering from cervical neoplasm, total abdominal hysterectomy was performed for the lesion and the lithopedion was found incidentally. The patient's history was unremarkable, and laboratory tests were normal. The patient recalled having experienced a severe abdominal pain about 50 years before. Her physician had felt "a benign tumor" in her pelvis at that time, indicating that the stone child had retained in the maternal peritoneal cavity for 50 years.
