[Ovarian pregnancy after gamete transfer (gift). A case report].
A case of ovarian pregnancy after gamete transfer (GIFT) is reported in a 33-year old women who, after intensive stimulation therapy, experienced a right tubal pregnancy in one cycle and an ovarian pregnancy on the left side in the next. The incidence of ovarian pregnancies seems to have been increasing during the past years, comprising 3.3% of all extrauterine pregnancies. This may be influenced by the possibilities of sterility therapy today. Clinical presentation, possible pathogenesis, diagnostic steps and preferred management are described. The use of transvaginal sonography has improved the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancies and should be routinely used leading to an early diagnosis and organ-preserving therapy. This case report is intended to assist and promote the sensitivity towards an early diagnosis of this rare form of ectopic pregnancy.
