Bilateral Tubal Pregnancies Presenting 11 Days Apart: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Ectopic pregnancy is the most common cause of maternal mortality in the first trimester. Bilateral tubal pregnancy is the rarest subset with an estimated incidence of one in 725 to 1,580 ectopic pregnancies. Of the cases of bilateral tubal pregnancy reported in the literature, most were associated with the use of assisted reproductive techniques. Here we present the case of a patient, without a prior history of reproductive technology use, who underwent treatment for a tubal pregnancy and was subsequently found to have a second, contralateral tubal pregnancy 11 days later.
