RESUMO
Heterotopic pregnancy, simultaneous intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancy, is an extremely rare case. The incidence of heterotopic pregnancy was about 1 to 30,000 pregnancies, but it has increased after wider use of assisted reproductive technology. The rising incidence presents a serious problem as the diagnosis of this potentially fatal condition is often missed. Careful pelvic examination combined with serial beta-hCG determinations, and transvaginal sonography to evaluate the adnexal region are necessary prerequisites for early diagnosis. We report a case of heterotopic pregnancy following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer(IVF-ET) with a brief review of literature.

A low grade endometrial stromal sarcoma is a rare malignant tumor in woman. We experienced this infrequent malignant tumor in a 36 years old woman showing metas- tasis to both ovaries, omentum, rectum and mesenteric lymph nodes, and she was treated by total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy followed by VAC(vincristi n, actinomycin, cyclophoshamide) chemotherapy. The authors report this case with the clinicopathologic findings and brief review of literature.
