Pregnancy is an extraordinary experience, but it can come with its share of discomforts. Abdominal pain is a common concern for many pregnant women. While some discomfort may be normal, it is essential to understand the different types of abdominal pain and know when they may indicate a more serious problem.
Abdominal pain during pregnancy refers to any discomfort or pain felt in the stomach or lower abdomen. It is a common symptom that can range in intensity from mild to severe.
Abdominal pain during pregnancy can be obstetric, gynaecological, urinary or related to the digestive tract. Some types of pain are normal during pregnancy, while others require urgent treatment.
When rarity complicates diagnosis, we report a very rare and exceptional case in pregnant women, pregnancy-related intestinal ischaemia, a rare emergency with maternal and foetal implications.
