ABSTRACT

@#Heterotopic pregnancy or the coexistence of an intrauterine and an extrauterine pregnancy occurs in about 1 out of 30,000 pregnancies. Between assisted reproductive techniques and ovulation induction, it is said to occur more commonly with the former. The patient presented in this case is a 29 year old primigravid who underwent ovulation induction with clomiphene citrate and was later on diagnosed to have both an intrauterine and a non-viable extrauterine pregnancy. The management for this kind of pregnancy can be medical, surgical or expectant. The patient in this case was managed expectantly. This case study presents a review of literature on heterotopic pregnancy, and describes how this rare type of pregnancy developed in this index patient, how it is diagnosed and managed, and to showcase how expectant management can be a safe option for cases of heterotopic pregnancy.
