A Case of Term Delivery in Heterotopic Pregnancy after Ovulation Induction / 대한주산의학회잡지

ABSTRACT

Heterotopic pregnancy is an unusual condition that intrauterine pregnancy is accompanied by a coexisting ectopic pregnancy. The incidence of heterotopic pregnancies has increased in recent years because of rising incidence of pelvic inflammatory disease, pelvic surgery, expanding use of assisted reproductive technology. We report a rare case with heterotopic pregnancy following ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination that was diagnosed after rupture of the ectopic pregnancy. After surgical removal of the ruptured left tubal pregnancy, she carried the intrauterine pregnancy to term without any complications.
