Ovarian pregnancy after bilateral salpingectomy in a patient with fertilization: a case report
Ovarian pregnancy is rare but may occur with in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer in women who have undergone bilateral salpingectomy. We report a case of an approximately 30-year-old woman who had in vitro fertilization and a history of bilateral salpingectomy, and was diagnosed with an ovarian p...

| description | Ovarian pregnancy is rare but may occur with in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer in women who have undergone bilateral salpingectomy. We report a case of an approximately 30-year-old woman who had in vitro fertilization and a history of bilateral salpingectomy, and was diagnosed with an ovarian pregnancy. Laparoscopic enucleation of the gestational product in the ovary and ovarian remnant reconstruction were performed. The patient recovered well after surgery and was discharged home 5 days postoperatively. ß-human chorionic gonadotropin was undetectable 3 weeks after the surgery. Awareness of the possibility of ovarian pregnancy after in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer is the most important step in an early diagnosis and treatment. Salpingectomy should be carefully performed to eliminate the risk of heterotopic pregnancy, especially in cases where a subsequent gestation is desired. |
