An extra-uterine pregnancy, in which the embryos or foetuses are located outside the uterus, is an uncommon event. The following case report was about an ewe which brought with a history of completion of term and was exhibiting intermittent straining for the past two days with failure to deliver the lamb. Clinical and obstetrical examination revealed that the cervix was not dilated, which guided to opt for Laparo-hysterotomy. Peri-operative findings, revealed the presence of a live foetus with intact membranes in the peritoneal cavity and a foetal mummy in the anterior abdominal region. Hence, the present case places on record the successful management of extra-uterine pregnancy due to a tear in the uterus.
