title: Combined intrauterine and tubal pregnancy after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer.
abstract: A case of combined intrauterine and tubal pregnancy after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer is reported. As soon as the diagnosis was made at 9 weeks gestation, the fetal heart movement of the tubal pregnancy disappeared, and the patient was managed without surgery throughout the pregnancy course. After an infant was delivered, a right salpingectomy was performed and the diagnosis was histologically confirmed. Risk factors and treatments of combined pregnancy are discussed.
