Simultaneous Tubal and Intra‐Uterine Pregnancy Following in Vitro Fertilization and Embryo Transfer

Abstract
A case of simultaneous ectopic and intra‐uterine pregnancy following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF‐ET) is described. On day 56 after ET the tubal pregnancy ruptured, with massive hemoperitoneum. Following salpingectomy, the intra‐uterine pregnancy continued to term when delivery was carried out by cesarean section owing to non‐progress of labor and suspected fetal distress. The pitfalls in diagnosing a simultaneous pregnancy of this kind following IVF‐ET are discussed.
