Abstract |
Diagnosis of heterotopic pregnancy could be delayed because of insufficient clinical symptoms. Many clinician mistook the symptoms associated with ectopic pregnancy for the symptoms of complicated normal intrauterine pregnancy. The incidence of heterotopic pregnancies has been increased because of the use of various ovulation induction and assisted reproductive technologies. We experienced a case of bilateral tubal pregnancies and intrauterine twin pregnancy in polycystic ovary syndrome woman conceived after ovulation induction by clomiphene citrate. We report this case with a brief review of the literatures. |
