A 37-year-old woman was pregnant with an ectopic baby in the liver.
About this reports Need to Know.
Azucena Shuang Lazaro arrived at the hospital with her face “distorted in pain.”
Officials said such a case has only been recorded 34 times in the past 50 years, calling it “one of the rarest cases in medicine.”
The woman was hospitalized at the Arzobispo Loayza National Hospital in Lima, Peru.
Peru’s health ministry said it arrived in the coastal city of Chimbote with “a problem that pushed the medical team to extreme measures.”

A spokesman for the ministry said: “Azucena came, her face contorted with a strange pain, looking for answers. No one could have imagined that one of the rarest cases in the treatment of the growth in the womb: ectopic pregnancy in the liver. This is a rare condition that only 34 such cases have been recorded in more than fifty years of research.”
The six-week embryo implanted in the patient’s liver tissue was successfully removed. The spokesman said: “Surgeons carefully removed the tiny creature which had both sensitivity and resilience, although it was no longer growing.

Dr. Jorge Gerico Araujo said the patient was admitted to the hospital’s gynecology emergency department “with a history of two surgeries previously performed in another institution for ectopic pregnancy.”
After imaging tests, it was discovered that the embryo was still in her body. The embryo was not viable and there was no heartbeat, so an emergency action plan was put into action. The liver is an organ that, when in good condition and with proper care, can recover its structure after a surgical procedure like the one we performed.”

Azucena returned home five days after surgery. The mother of two said: “I have to thank God and the medical team at Loaisa Hospital. I can now go home to my husband and two children feeling very relieved and grateful.”
The Ministry of Health said her case will “remain a memory of Peruvian medicine.”
Let us remember that A woman with two wombs gave birth to a child with each man. It is very rare to have two uteruses, and it is even rarer to give birth from both.
