RESUMEN
The occurrence of carcinoma in a congenital uterine anomaly is uncommon. Indeed, malignancy of the uterine fundus with congenital uterine anomaly is quite rare, with fewer than 50 cases reported in the world liturature. Many patients go through life without the knowledge of their presence, and they are discovered at autopsy. Early diagnosis and proper management is necessary to decrease the high mortality. We present a case of endometrial carcinoma in a single horn of a bicornuate uterus.

Of all forms of ectopic gestation, the possibility of fertility catastrophe is highest with a cervical pregnancy. Though rare, it is a potentially life-threatening condition. In the past it was diagnosed late, after there was profuse hemorrhage from the cervix and it usually required hysterectomy. With ultrasound, diagnosis can be made earlier and conservative management attempted in order to preserve the reproductive potential. Methotrexate has been used both systemically and intra-amniotically to treat cervical ectopic gestation conservatively.

Heterotopic pregnancy, simultaneous intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancy, is an extremely rare case. The incidence of heterotopic pregnancy was about 1 to 30,000 pregnancy, but it has been increased. Ectopic pregnancy is associated with significant mortality if not promptly diagnosed. Careful pelvic examination combined serial beta-hCG determinations and transvaginal sonography to evaluation the adnexal region are necessary prerequisites for early diagnosis. We report a case of discovery of heterotopic pregnancy after elective abortion with brief review of literature.

Primary ovarian pregnacy is a rare form of ectopic pregnacy of which an estimated overall incidence is highly variable, but improved diagnosis of acute hemoperitoneum of ovarian may reveal a higher incidence than reported earlier. Ovarian pregnancy is uaually accompanied with the rupture of the ovary and massive hemoperitoneum. It usually presents with abdominal pain, menstural irregularities, vaginal bleeding, a palpable adnexal mass and other symptoms which are very similar to those of tubal ectopic pregnacy and hemorrhgic corpus luteum cysts. Risk factors to ovarian pregnancy include a history of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), prior pelvic surgery, and use of an intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUD). We have experienced three cases of ovarian pregnancy, which are presented with a brief review of the literature.
