Cervical pregnancy after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer.
A case of cervical pregnancy after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer is described. This unusual pregnancy ended at 26 weeks' gestation after hysterotomy and delivery of an 830 gm boy. We suggest that the in vitro fertilization procedure is one of the possible risk factors of cervical pregnancy.
