Introduction: In vitro fertilisation has become a very common procedure in the infertility practice due to both accessibility and good success rates.
Discussion: Complications, however, are constant reminders that no procedure is totally safe. In this paper, we present a case of IVF pregnancy that presented with pelvic abscess, and despite two laparotomies the triplet pregnancy was lost at 22 weeks gestation.
Conclusion: This case highlights the fact that the progression of pelvic infection in pregnancy can be slow.
