Combined subsequent development of intrauterine and extrauterine gestations.
A case of combined subsequent development of intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancy is reported. Signs of normal pregnancy associated with abdominal pains and an adnexal mass were the most significant symptoms and the final diagnosis was verified by laparoscopy in both cases. We consider that drugs for induction of ovulation (chlomiphene citrate and menopausal gonadotropins) were the causative factors of this rare obstetric complication.
