Abdominal pregnancies are rare forms of ectopic pregnancies. Although the pelvic cavity is the preferential site, a small fraction of abdominal pregnancies has been found in the upper abdominal cavity, e.g., the omentum, the spleen, the liver etc. In this manuscript, we first report a Korean case of hepatic pregnancy which was highly suggested by operative findings. A 24-year-old woman underwent laparotomy under the impression of hemoperitoneum and ectopic pregnancy. An 1 x 1x 0.5cm sized mass was removed from the surface of the right lobe of the liver. Microscopically, the chorionic villi were demonstrated. The patient had a successful recovery.
