Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and heterotopic pregnancy after IVF.
We report a case of Severe OHSS combined with Heterotopic pregnancy. During the treatment of OHSS the patient underwent transvaginal paracentesis for the ascites but no sign of blood was noticed into the fluid. The ultrasound control in the 8th week had shown a normal intrauterine pregnancy without any suspicion for heterotopic pregnancy. The diagnosis for heterotopic pregnancy became possible at 10 Weeks of gestation by Ultrasound. Laparotomy with partial tubal resection was performed. The intrauterine pregnancy is still ongoing without complications.
