Abstract: | Although a higher incidence of ectopic pregnancy has been reported after
in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer, three ectopic pregnancies
in the same woman is very rare. A patient of 32 years underwent IVF-embryo
transfer six times within 3 years. Three of four conceptions resulted in
ectopic pregnancies. The first involved simultaneous intrauterine and left
tubal pregnancy, the second was a right tubal pregnancy, and the third was
a right interstitial pregnancy. In IVF-embryo transfer, bilateral
salpingectomy does not remove the risk of interstitial or cornual
pregnancy.
