Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 9
Abstract
Heterotopic pregnancy is considered when both ectopic and intra-uterine pregnancies occur at the same time. Even though it is a rare occasion, it can be fatal. It is the leading cause of maternal mortality in the first trimester. To prevent the associated mortalities, physicians need to know the typical presentation and manage the case properly. It is well documented that ectopic pregnancy has a strong association with assisted reproductive technology in terms of treatment. Both Surgical & medical options of treatment are available depending on the clinical scenario. Here we present a case of heterotopic pregnancy in a 26-year-old female after eleven weeks of amenorrhea that associated with a scanty painless vaginal bleeding. Diagnosis was made by ultrasonography and surgical treatment of both pregnancies were done Successfully with no notable complications.
