Clinical manifestations in the abdominal cavity of a woman in labor, discovered during an urgent cesarean section at 41 weeks of gestation 2 months after an acute form of COVID-19, are described. The materials of medical documentation were analyzed and the features of the course of pregnancy by trimester, urgent cesarean section, postoperative period, laboratory parameters, ultrasound data, cardiotocography, fetal condition at birth and three days later were determined. Presentation of case. 33-year-old pregnant woman (pregnant for the first time) had COVID-19 at 26 weeks of gestation.
