Heterotopic pregnancy in natural conception

J Hum Reprod Sci. 2008 Jan;1(1):37-8. doi: 10.4103/0974-1208.39595.

Abstract

Heterotopic gestation, although common with assisted reproductive techniques, is very rare in natural conception. A high index of suspicion can help in timely diagnosis and appropriate intervention. We report a case of heterotopic pregnancy in a 22-year-old woman presented with hemoperitoneum from ruptured tubal pregnancy with live intrauterine gestation at 10 weeks of amenorrhea, diagnosed on ultrasound examination.

Keywords: Adnexal mass; assisted conception; heterotopic.
