Abstract
|
|
Introduction:
Heterotopic pregnancy is an uncommon clinical condition in which intrauterine and ectopic pregnancies occur at the same time.
Case Report: We report three cases of heterotopic pregnancy in a natural conception that had different clinical presentation and surgical management. Conclusion: Although heterotopic pregnancy is a rare event in spontaneous conception, physicians must always keep in mind that confirming an intrauterine pregnancy does not exclude the coexistence of an ectopic pregnancy especially in women presenting a pelvic pain. | |
